The “Machine Dreams: Rainforest” exhibition has opened at Dataland, the Museum of AI Arts in Los Angeles, marking a significant milestone in the integration of technology and art. Developed by Refik Anadol Studio, this inaugural exhibition features the Large Nature Model (LNM), the world’s first open-access multimodal AI trained exclusively on nature data, utilizing over 500 million responsibly sourced images. The exhibition embodies the growing trend of dedicated spaces for AI-generated art, reflecting how AI models that focus on environmental and wildlife imagery are bridging technology with natural themes. Visitors can engage with the immersive experience across five galleries over a span of 25,000 square feet, redefining traditional notions of art within the museum context.

Dataland: Dataland is the Museum of AI Arts located at Frank Gehry’s the Grand LA in Los Angeles. It functions as a site of continuous production where art emerges in real time through the interplay of data, computation, and human presence. The museum launched with the ‘Machine Dreams: Rainforest’ exhibition developed by Refik Anadol Studio.
Google Cloud: Google Cloud delivers cloud computing infrastructure and AI hosting services. It powers the Large Nature Model central to the Dataland exhibition, with operations in Oregon supporting the AI computations for the immersive galleries. This enables the real-time data processing that defines the exhibition experience.
Refik Anadol Studio: Refik Anadol Studio is a media arts studio specializing in AI-driven immersive installations and data visualizations. The studio created the ‘Machine Dreams: Rainforest’ exhibition for Dataland, centering on the Large Nature Model trained exclusively on nature imagery. It highlights real-time art generation involving visitors and computational systems.
