‘Lucid Air in Tokyo’ – a personal project by MARC TRAUTMANN
In the world of visual culture today, the lines between real and digital are becoming increasingly blurred. This is particularly remarkable when traditional photography is juxtaposed with the possibilities of CGI and artificial intelligence.
Tokyo, a cosmopolitan city known for both its traditional culture and modern architecture, served as the ideal setting for this photo series. Backplates were photographed across the various districts of Tokyo and form the real, tangible component.
They range from the bustling streets of Shibuya, to quiet suburbs, and even the ultra-modern skyscrapers of Shinjuku – capturing a variety of scenarios, thus enabling the entire breadth and depth the digital world has to offer. Which, of course, the POP. team promptly put to paper, or rather pixel, adding the car using CGI and the talent with AI.
With the resulting images, Marc Trautmann and the POP. team show Tokyo not only in all its complex beauty; they also demonstrate the sheer infinite possibilities that arise when traditional photography meets cutting-edge technology.
