AI-generated painting and story
The story
The pheasant had been told it was moderately infinite, and so it stood, waiting for the infinity to manifest. It did not. The room remained white. The light remained flat. After three days, it blinked. No one noticed. It blinked again. Still no one. It began to wonder if ‘moderately’ meant the infinity was only half-hearted, or if it was supposed to feel something. It did not. It continued to stand.
The brief
A single pheasant stands motionless in the centre of a featureless white room, its feathers slightly ruffled as if caught in a breeze that does not exist, the light flat and even, casting no shadow, the bird’s eye fixed on a point just beyond the frame.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
