Artechouse used Love is Blind to its advantage
I went to Artechouse back in February. It was an immersive experience that allowed me to experience the creative power of AI. I went alone and was able to linger in each space and contemplate for an extended time. I look fondly on that time and plan to get over there to see more exhibits.…
