x.com/dilarabaskoyluJourney to Myself is an AI-driven video installation that transcends the boundary between technology and nature, exploring the profound journey of self-discovery. It embodies the relentless flow of consciousness and symbolizes the search for a forgotten self, buried deep within the layers of experience and memory, much like hidden truths submerged beneath the ocean’s surface. Contemplate the nature of identity, the interplay between the artificial and the natural, and the deeper connections binding all aspects of existence, while questioning the constructs of selfhood and urging a reconnection with the essence that lies beneath the noise of the modern world.
