ALBUQUERQUE MOSAIC

an award-winning short-documentary from Dylan Brody

Rabbit Creek Media began work on a project, shooting interviews and B-Roll for a documentary on an art project in Albuquerque. Bringing us in to edit a rough assembly led to a participating productions house credit and Mr. Brody (our CEO) directing and shepherding the piece through post-production to completion. The short documentary is beautiful and has been winning awards at Documentary and Short Film Festivals worldwide.

For art’s sake!

Poetry Against the End of the World brings Mr. Brody’s work as an outsider artist in Los Angeles to a new level. It will be released on the festival and competitions circuit early in 2023

Mr. Brody used the audio from the performance at what he describes as “one of the best shows he’s ever gotten to do,” opening for David Sedaris at the Valley Performing Arts Center. He set the story, told in front of an audience of about 1500 people, against a backdrop of wonderful images created in collaboration with Dall-E, the AI artist.

Mr. Brody took his guitar and a looping pedal on stage with him in Spring of 2022. This short film has won a great many awards including, much to Mr. Brody’s delight, a couple for Best Original Music. We did this in collaboration with Oak Honest Records

This segment from part two of POETRY AGAINST THE END OF THE WORLD consists of the poem Pandemic, written in 2014 long before Covid-19 hit the world.

Images were created by an AI utilizing ONLY the lines of the poem with no additional prompting.

This experimental segment as well as others in the full film, explore and examine the boundaries of AI's ability to imagine.

Says Mr. Brody, "If AI is learning from all that it has access to, let us give it access to high art. Let us fill the burgeoning child-mind of Electronicus (likely predecessor of Quanticus) with optimism and imagery, with problems to solve and solutions to improve. While others make porn, create disinformation campaigns, or find new methods for profiteering, perhaps we can imbue in the coming artificial intellect a sense of wonder, of hope, the spirit of an artist. AI represents the cutting edge of the human exploration of consciousness and how it works. If we as a species act as gods, I want to be at the forefront of giving our creation a soul, curiosity, empathy and all the things we think of as 'humanity,' when we speak of it as a concept rather than a scourge upon a once-green planet."
