About the Book
This book began with an experiment: combining my photography with AI image generation.
Using The Portals of Prague as a source, I fed photos into AI with varied prompts, producing countless variations. To focus, I chose the cover image and expanded it into hundreds of “seed” generations. From these, I refined, upscaled, and composited 37 final works.
Each image is a guided collaboration between myself and the AI—a process of prompting, sifting, and re-imagining.
For me, this is less about technology than imagination. AI has opened creative paths I could not have reached alone.
