What if artificial intelligence were not a threat, but a revelation?
In Alchemy & Algorithms, Roberto Brunetti turns the machine into a mirror of the soul. The book emerges from an intimate dialogue between the artist and his personal archive: vintage photographs, expressionist shadows, fragments of Southern Italian landscapes, and retro-futurist visions come together, guided not by precision, but by the poetry of chance.
Brunetti does not program, he conjures. Each image is a transmutation: the glitch becomes grace, calculation turns to emotion. The algorithms bend to the sensitivity of a gaze shaped by decades of design and visual experimentation.
Through these compositions, where past and possible intertwine, Alchemy & Algorithms sketches the portrait of a world in flux. Neither manifesto nor confession, it is an open-air studio diary, a journey through the margins of the real, where technology, at last, rediscovers its human heart.
