NAMI is an AI video collection developed using a multi modal approach. Each wave flows from natural language to image to video through a process that integrates two generative AI models.

The idea for the collection arose during a late night exploration, tinkering with various prompts. Geometric waves were the focus. However, a spontaneous output appeared that was naturally depicted and composed.

It resembled The Great Wave of Kanagawa by ukiyo–e artist Katsushika Hokusai. The print depicts three boats navigating through a storm–tossed sea with a large wave in the center and Mount Fuji visible in the background.

From this spontaneous output, with inspiration from Hokusai, NAMI was born and constructed over a three month period using generative AI image and video tools.
