Cyano-botanists are experimenting with historical photographic processes and artificial intelligence trained in natural history archives to encode, reanimate, and virtually recreate the biodiversity of species that have gone extinct due to climate change. This video includes images captured with a microscope, alternative photography processes, 3D LiDAR scans, and generative AI. This interdisciplinary approach examines parallels between the history of photography and the visual language being shaped by our rapidly evolving emerging technologies.
