DOTTED LINES

I altered some of the drawings from my book -- FINISH MY FIGURE DRAWINGS -- with AI using the "Realtime" feature in KREA -- with the prompt: "dotted lines" (like I have since April 20, 2026):

MUSEUM AR


My ART DREAM is to exhibit with AUGMENTED REALITY my AI Sculptures in the museums like we did in the Denver Art Museum in March 2026:

My FAKE AI sculpture
exhibited in AUGMENTED REALITY
in front of the Denver Art Museum


THE AUGMENTED DREAM

More specifically, I want to exhibit my AUGMENTED REALITY sculptures in FIXED LOCATION in the Albuquerque Museum Sculpture Garden, as in this AI mock-up below:


3D SCULPTURE "TARGET"

I really want to use one "Target" Sculpture to summon two different AUGMENTED REALITY experiences.  The Bill Barrett abstract sculpture in front of the Albuquerque Museum has distinct views from different sides -- so I used the North and Head On views as "Targets" to summon two different AR sculptures in PICTARIZE. 


Go to THIS LINK and try to view two different AR experiences from the same sculpture in person at the Albuquerque Museum:

FIRST AUGMENT
As viewed from the SOUTH side

AR "content": Paperpose.glb


South "TARGET" View

I took a photo of the SOUTH View, and used RemoveBG to remove the background, upscaled that in ChatGPT, and then used that simpler sculpture contour as a "Target" image view:

I removed the background in RemoveBG,
and upscaled in ChatGPT
(keeping the transparent background)

SECOND AUGMENT
As viewed HEAD ON

AR "content": 260316A.glb


Head On "TARGET" View

I took a photo of the HEAD ON View, and used RemoveBG to remove the background, upscaled that in ChatGPT, and then used that simpler sculpture contour as a "Target" image view:

as viewed HEAD ON

NOTE: The First AUGMENT (from the South Side) only worked after I upscaled the "Target" image with ChatGPT.  That is, it worked from all the three photos online (in this web post).  I have not tried yet in the real world Albuquerque Museum.

The Second Augment (Head On) only worked from the first "Target" image, and not the two following photos on this blog page.  I have not tried yet in the real world Albuquerque Museum.

 GENERATING 3D

If this works I would like to generate and add a lot of 3D Augmented Reality Sculptures to the Albuquerque Museum Sculpture Garden.  That means I would have to scan objects with Scaniverse (like we did in 2024); use MESHY online for 2D-to3D generations; or perhaps go 2D-to-3D locally with Trellis:
(We tried unsuccessfully to install the 6 VRAM Trellis above on April 26, but used Claude instead of following the instructions)

AMBIENT INTELLIGENCE

I went to the AMBIENT INTELLIGENCE exhibition and talk at RELAY in Santa Fe on April 26, 2026:

AMBIENT INTELLIGENCE
exhibition at RELAY in Santa Fe


RELAY Creative Space entrance


AMBIENT INTELLIGENCE


The exhibition was part of CURRENTS NEW MEDIA



Setting up


PREMISE

The underlying premise seemed to be to integrate all the exhibitions through software written by JORDAN TIMBER SNYDER:

MAESTRA-CORE -- which is an ambient intelligence platform designed for live performance environments."  Apparently it was listening in on the gallery (through lidar and other invisible wavelengths), and influencing the other exhibits with that data:

Projected MAESTRA visualization
that was integrating the all the other exhibitions


ZUYVA SEVILLA

ZUYVA SEVILLA installed a light exhibition high on the wall at the entrance, that flickered like luminarias based on the ambient electromagnetic data input:

MIKE ROOT
D.A.I.S.Y

MIKE ROOT of Santa Fe projected the moving images on the large screen in the main room:

JEROME MORRISON +
 JULIAN ADDAMS WOLF
ENLIGHTENING COMPANIONS

JEROME MORRISON + JULIAN ADDAMS WOLF invited visitors to wear an amulet that apparently would influence the other exhibits as one walked around the gallery:

OWEN SCHWAB
MICROCELL

OWEN SCHWAB of Santa Fe had a theremin-like exhibition that would play musical notes when visitors passed their hands under each of the lights:

B. GREINER
CYBERNETIC BIORECTOR -
CONFIGURATION NO. 005

B. GREINER of Albuquerque displayed a sculpture whose movements were influenced by the algae growth in one of the units:

JORDAN TIMBER SNYDER
SIGNIT:: OPTICS

JORDAN TIMBER SNYDER of Santa Fe wrote the MAESTRA software, and also had an exhibition of waves projecting on the large back wall, influenced by the invisible wavelengths of the gallery and cosmic rays:








JORDAN TIMBER SNYDER speaking


GABE WEISBUCH
MANGON

GABE WEISBUCH of Santa Fe asked visitors to put their hands on copper plates to influence the animation on the screen:











THOMAS VAUSE
AMBIENT PULSE

THOMAS VAUSE of Santa Fe installed a monitor on the ceiling, which displayed a heart that pulsed according to the ambient input from the whole gallery:







THOMAS VAUSE speaking


MORGAN BARNARD
EPHEMERAL CHANNELS

MORGAN BARNARD of Santa Fe projected on the floor from the ceiling...however the animation was not possible to see with all the chairs set up for the talk:





MORGAN BARNARD speaking

SARAH TURNER
S.O.N.A.R.

SARAH TURNER of Santa Fe had a wall projection that was influenced by the ambience of the gallery:








LILA STEFFAN +
 MATT RYBECKY
PHOTOTAXIS

LILA STEFFAN + MATT RYBECKY of Santa Fe created a moth sculpture that would open and close it's wings according to how it perceived the light in the gallery.  This was in reference to how these moths move in real life according to the light:









LILA STEFFAN + MATT RYBECKY


KRISTA FAIST
MIRROR'S ECHO

KRISTA FAIST of Columbus, Ohio had an installation which would pick up the speech of the visitors -- using Whisper.AI -- and interpreted that as a visual image on a big screen:

picked up the visitors' speech




ROB GULOTTA + SASHA FAUST
BLACK BOX

ROB GULOTTA + SASHA FAUST allowed visitors to open a black box and view lights that moved according to the  activity in the gallery and beyond:
