Starting in July 2020, as a vehicle to learn the visual programming and prototyping tool, Touchdesigner; GENERATIVE DREAMS developed into a daily audiovisual project. The series blends a (usually) looping computer generated video vignette with a spontaneously composed soundscape (usually made with Ableton Live) to create a minute of directed emotion.
Over the years, the series birthed 1628 original audiovisual compositions, taking on the qualities of a kind of spiritual cartography, taking the artist's emotions and inner landscapes just outside the boundaries of legible language and rendering them in ones, zeros, frequencies, sounds and colours.
Pieces from GENERATIVE DREAMS have been adapted into multiple projects including PORTALS (Afri Art Gallery, 2022), IN LINEAR RES (Noor Riyadh, 2022) and it's accompanying soundtrack album.
The initial run of the series concluded on New Year's Eve 2024 .
