His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum recently visited the Museum of the Future to unveil a groundbreaking exhibition called Earth Dreams. This unique display, created by Refik Anadol Studio in collaboration with the museum, uses cutting-edge technology to explore the connections between art, nature, and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
An Immersive Art and Tech Experience
The exhibition debuted on the ‘Tomorrow, Today’ floor during the Dubai Future Forum. His Highness toured the display, which presents an imaginative blend of human memory, AI, and the rhythms of nature.
It uses data from millions of natural world photos, satellite images, and meteorological datasets to craft mesmerizing visuals. Over 30 projectors and generative AI technology bring these elements to life, creating an immersive visual journey.
