Guardians of Yu
Gatesleeper
Gatesleeper aka Martin Rästa is an Estonian artist, musician and graphic designer. In 2003, he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in media and advertising art from Tartu University of Applied Sciences and in 2018 he graduated with a master’s degree in new media from the Estonian Academy of Arts. Guardians of Yu is Estonia’s first music video created by artificial intelligence, Midjourney and Pika Labs were used to create it. The song comes from the artist’s third album called Crystal Hearts. Since the artist’s music is exploratory in its nature, it fits particularly well with an artificial intelligence that is still learning, searching and experimenting, being clumsy in a sense.
Gatesleeper ehk Martin Rästa on Eesti kunstnik, muusik ja graafiline disainer. 2003. aastal lõpetas ta bakalaureusekraadiga Tartu Kõrgema Kunstikooli meedia- ja reklaamikunsti eriala ning 2018. aastal lõpetas ta magistrikraadiga Eesti Kunstiakadeemia uusmeedia eriala. “Guardians of Yu” on Eesti esimene tehisintellekti loodud muusikavideo, mille loomiseks kasutati Midjourneyt ja Pika Labsi. Laul pärineb artisti kolmandalt albumilt nimega “Crystal Hearts”. Kuna artisti muusika on oma olemuselt otsinguline, siis sobib see eriti hästi kokku tehisaru looduga, mis alles õpib, otsib ja katsetab olles teatud mõttes kohmakas.
