Finding the message for the medium: AI content, short format. Here, a film-poem, intense for sure… like poetry.
“Beauty and the Bees”, an H_BARX + AI ekphrastic short-film epic, in dialog with Emily Dickinson’s,
"Nature, Poem 7" (The Bee), and
“The Bee is not afraid of me.”

We made a ‘Design Process’ AI short film with #RunwayML -for the Gen:48 competition. It’s weird… and “insanely original”, per the kind words of a fellow participant on Discord. Our work didn’t make the finals but… not sad! I learned a lot and will be teaching others. youtu.be/YdetOcqq26M?...
