title (In)Visible Cities: Exploring generative artificial intelligence'screativity through the analysis of a conscious journey in latent space

summary The rise of generative AI has redefined architectural design by introducing latent space, challenging traditional methods. This paper aims to explore, structure, and analyse latent journeys, drawing from analytical design discourses. We construct journeys towards 'Isaura' from 'Invisible Cities' by Italo Calvino, bridging literature and visual narratives, utilising the text-image generating software, Midjourney. The objective is to identify spatial configurations that align with the designer's interpretation of the text, ensuring the accuracy of visual elements. Structured as a Markov (stochastic) process, the experiment encompasses four primary stages to offer a rational explanation for the journey and the role of each segment. Findings emphasise the potential of latent space in augmenting architectural design and underscore the necessity for analytical tools to avert the reduction of design to trivial formalism. The study's outcome suggests that understanding and leveraging the traits of latent space can nurture a more meaningful engagement with AI-driven design, presenting a novel approach to architectural creativity.
