This exclusive work is part of a generative machine learning series of landscapes around rural New England. This particular piece is a 30 minute time-lapse taken 1700ft in the air of a storm rolling into a valley in Hancock Vermont. I asked the computer to remove the road, parts of the forest, and the storm itself.
