A Collab with Gemini

Whilst brainstorming my 3289479th personal project idea (as one does), I became interested in merging different crafts together.

I choreographed a dance piece to Mary J. Blige’s “The One”, took my favorite snippet, and decided to overlay it against a series of collage.

What images to use though? I decided to utilize Google’s Gemini in constructing a flow of words and phrases that connect to one another. Then, I sourced the appropriate images online.

Take a look at the last couple connections - I read “Home run” and thought about how it could be a game-ending move (I don’t actually know if that is true...I’m sadly not that into sports), and thus wrote “Game over”. Gemini thought I was declaring our little game to be over, which I thought was funny. It made for an organic way to end the thread.

Below is the final result! I spliced the frames of the video of me dancing to match the erratic and randomness of the collage.
