Synthetic Muse|
AI-Powered Storytelling Section
AI isn’t a tool. It’s a co-author
What if inspiration doesn’t originate solely in the human mind?
What if creativity is no longer an exclusive human domain, but a dialogue between biology and code?
The Synthetic Muse Section was born out of this new frontier—where artificial intelligence is not just a tool, but a collaborator. A co-author of structure, a generator of image and rhythm, a provocateur of new forms and emotions.
This section welcomes short films that feature deep integration of AI in the creative process, including (but not limited to):
-
AI-assisted scriptwriting or story development
-
Use of AI-generated imagery, audio, animation, or editing
-
Explorations of AI logic, synthetic consciousness, or human-machine tension as thematic cores
We’re not here to judge technical polish alone—we are interested in how AI reshapes authorship, distorts and enriches narrative, or creates dissonance that leads to discovery. We invite experiments, collisions, even unresolved collaborations between mind and machine.
Here, AI is not a servant—it is your co-dreamer, your unpredictable input, your ghost in the frame.
