Five years ago, I used GANs and style transfers to explore this dataset for the first time. Today, I’m returning to it with diffusion models, curious to see how the technology and my own perspective has changed. Here’s the latest outcome from this renewed experiment.

I just got back from Texas with dozens of photos and videos. The clouds heading into Dallas rarely disappoint. With all this new footage, I’ve started experimenting with simple geometric patterns and shapes. Collaging clouds ...

Throwback to a fun evening during the WorldofWomen (WoW) Gala at the Palácio do Grilo in Lisbon earlier this year. The palace’s decoration was truly special—but I still got stuck on these lamps for obvious reasons. Quentin caught me mid-awe, ...

Plotting Against Centralization Series - MLO.art Inc For the past few months, I’ve been creating a series of data-driven visualizations highlighting global blockchain adoption.

Discover more about the PAC VV4Y Black Variant and the broader Plotting Against Centralization series.

Another piece from my new Plotting Against Centralization (PAC) series is VV4Y, is a visualization of the remaining versus issued Bitcoin supply following the fourth Halving, contextualized by the USD value recorded at each of the four Halving milestones. This work debuted at BTC25 in Las Vegas, NV.

New Geometric Cloud Collage - MLO.art Inc

I am sharing my newest geometric cloud collage, made from a digitally drawn cloud and photos captured during a walk earlier last week. I created the collage in my hotel room in Toronto during one of those pauses between flights. Two takeoffs last week, four more this week.

I continue my exploration of a dataset I first worked with five years ago, using GANs and style transfers. This time, I’m applying diffusion models to see how far the tools and outcomes have come. Here’s another glimpse into this evolving experiment.

One of the first pieces from my new Plotting Against Centralization series is AN6Y, a visualization of active Bitcoin nodes shown as growing cloud formations over the past six years. This work debuted at the Art Ono fair in Seoul, Korea, and at BTC 2025 in Las Vegas, NV.

It’s been a deadline-heavy stretch, but I’m slowly returning to my regular rhythm. Sharing a new cloud collage today which I built from sky snapshots I took earlier this week. Always looking up.

Throwback to live plotting at the Bitcoin Conference 2025’s art gallery in Las Vegas — a massive thank-you to Dennis, Tommy, and the entire @bitcoinmagazine.bsky.social
team for making it such a memorable event. Here’s to an even bigger BTC 2026!

Plotting Against Centralization goes live next week at Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas.

I’ll be plotting in real time at the Bitcoin Art Gallery, thanks to the support of Bitcoin Magazine and Scarce.city. See you there?

My work "PAC: A Century of Charted Devaluation" will be part of this exhibition and charts how the dollar lost value over a century. Each rectangle represents a year and shows the changing slope of inflation, offering a visual timeline of systemic monetary erosion.

The Bitcoin Art Gallery will showcase a limited edition print series from The Art of Freedom collective, protesting inflation through the vision of over a dozen Bitcoin artists. The special exhibition will be held at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas, NV later this month.

After returning from South America, I’ve returned to pen plotting with heavier markers and new algorithms. I’m chasing textures that feel like woven threads. This direction offers promise, but more testing with pressure and placement is ahead.

I ran another cloud clip video with a different seed through my video collage algorithm. This sunset was recorded on my flight from Toronto to Montreal earlier this month. I’m considering increasing the tiling complexity further, as it still feels a bit too cohesive for my taste.

Hit by a fresh wave of snow, the plotter is back in motion, running its lines once again. There’s something calming about watching the fountain pen trace these long, deliberate strokes. You might even get to see it in action—I may be traveling with it later this year. More on that soon!

Five years ago, I used style transfers and GANs to create my first AI series based on my artwork. Now, I’m revisiting the same dataset with diffusion models to see how the results evolve. Here’s one of the first glimpses into this new experiment.

Sunset flights always amaze me—the ever-changing colours and hues in just an hour are incredible. Flight number 17 of 2025 did not disappoint—it’s been the best cloud harvest of the year so far. #sunset #art

After refining my generative collage script, it was time to explore its potential in video format. This is a studio timelapse I recorded last week. I’m excited to see how this script performs and to experiment with which videos work best in collages.
