Anatomy of Artificial Intelligence, got inspired by Ancient Greek  statues, as a living being which expands in all aspects of modern life. All the means of applied digital knowledge as a study of neuroscience and cognitive behavior. From Homo Sapiens to Homo Ludens [the man who plays, Latin] and Game Design, to Homo Faber [the man who creates, Latin] and Invention through Innovation.  A modern civilization of cross cultural references, which combines human studies, business, politics and art.

In my life and art always get inspired by music cause as the philosopher Roger Scruton.
