BLUESOULS

”A_o” is an artist duo and a collaboration between AiNA THE END and ROTH BART BARON, who attracted a lot of attention when they were suddenly featured in a promotional campaign for Otsuka Pharmaceutical’s health drink “Pocari Sweat”.
Dentsu Lab Tokyo developed and provided an immense organic background image using AI for the music video of “BLUE SOULS”, a new song by A_o.
The AI learned to unite “blue photos” collected from A_o’s two members and the public. As a result, the AI generated an unprecedented ever-changing visual by combining the photographs together.
