ΛПKI is a fictional character inspired by the engineer from the sci-fi movie Prometheus (2012). Originating from the ancient Sumerian language, the name ANKI signifies the "sky and earth," in traditional terms, it is interpreted as "the creator of the universe". This portrait represents the creator becoming his creation in a process of self-sacrifice. The DNA in his body slowly poisons and decomposes him. His remnants spread into the earth, the air, and the water like an infection fusing his genetic code with the earth. A process that is needed to create new life on a planet. The final result is an abstract representation of this description interpreted by AI. This data is carefully manipulated in GAN/AI software and repeated many times over using an amalgamation of text prompts mixed with targetted images pertaining to the description of ANKI. The final texture generated is then used to displace the surface of 3d model in MAYA, a near-identical 3D replica of the engineer in the movie!
