< Indeterminacy of depth in a plane> Even if the form of a two-dimensional painting is not intended to evoke illusion, we seem to aspire to "depth" according to the shadows contained in the image and the size of the form. However, in the images generated using neural networks, it is possible to disturb such "depth" orientation and create new "connotative moments". Originally, the term "connotative moment" in Laocoön was used in the discussion of which moment of movement the artist should cut out, and it was suggested that the artist should cut out a rich cross-section that evokes the back and forth on the time axis. On the other hand, in a new connotative moment, the connotative "moment" of the spatial axis is a problem.
