Latent Grains 18
Latent Grains 18 encapsulates the series' central principle with particular clarity: variation rather than repetition. A diagonal flow of blue, green, yellow, red, and violet runs through the image, as if the color spectrum itself had been set in motion. The transitions are soft, yet the direction is defined—a flow that is never exactly the same.
This illustrates what distinguishes AI-based image production: Every variation is a decision made unconsciously, but not without consequence. The same starting point, the same prompt, leads to a new weighting of intensity, pace, and color dominance. In Latent Grains 18 , the balance tips slightly in favor of the warm areas, while the blue recedes—a minimal shift with a noticeable effect.
The image can be interpreted as a visual metaphor for statistical probabilities: nothing is random, but nothing is fixed either. The work operates precisely in this space. The AI produces differences that human perception only recognizes through comparison.
Within the overall context of the series, it becomes clear that Taketo Muroi is not searching for the "best" image, but rather for the realm of possibilities. Latent Grains 18 is not a standalone work claiming to be definitive, but rather proof that meaning arises from deviation.
