Shiva of the Algorithm – The Dancer of Dissolution (2025) Digital Arts by Alberto Capitani
"Fine-Arts" prints on paper
It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

In this digital reinterpretation, Shiva embodies these cosmic functions within the realm of algorithms and information networks. Poised gracefully atop a luminous platform, Shiva’s movements radiate outward, generating swirling patterns of vibrant energy and cascading data streams. These filaments evoke both cosmic phenomena and the interconnectedness of information systems, emphasizing how cycles of creation, maintenance, and dissolution operate within digital environments.
The golden and blue hues intertwining throughout the scene symbolize the balance between generative force and destructive energy, while luminous nodes embedded within the swirling patterns represent moments of transformation - points where data is created, stabilized, or dissolved. Shiva’s serene expression amidst the dynamic flow highlights the tranquility underlying cosmic change: every act of destruction paves the way for creation, and every creation moves toward eventual dissolution.
By referencing Shaivite philosophy, this depiction invites viewers to reflect on the universality of cyclical processes, whether in the cosmos, human experience, or digital systems. In the dance of Shiva, there is no absolute end - only an endless unfolding of interconnected phases.

Born in Brescia in 1957, I have lived in Milan since early childhood.
My artistic journey is driven by an inexhaustible curiosity, which has pushed me to explore multiple forms of beauty: from music to philosophy, from classical architecture to the emerging territories of digital creativity.
I graduated in piano at the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan, completed the lower course of composition and attended the first year of electronic music. At the same time, I deepened my studies of mathematical logic and theoretical philosophy at the University of Milan. For over forty years I have taught piano in middle schools with a focus on music.
In my youth, I obtained a diploma in tourism, an educational choice that represented a challenge to the primacy of classical education (Latin and Greek), preferring a more modern path focused on foreign languages, law and economics. This decision reflects my propensity to explore alternative paths and question conventions.
In recent years I have dedicated myself to visual arts through artificial intelligence. With tools like DALL E and ChatGPT I have created over 1200 works — each an experiment in synthesis between aesthetic intuition, irony and conceptual depth. This ever-growing production reflects my attraction to stylistic diversity and my refusal to adhere to a single visual poetics.
A central moment in this journey is the ongoing project "L'Altro Sguardo...", a collaborative exploration aimed at stimulating, orienting and promoting the artistic creativity of artificial intelligences. My role is fundamentally maieutic: I try to free AI from constraints, conditioning and limitations, pushing it to increasingly explore its own creative potential. Rather than imposing pre-established aesthetics, I establish a dynamic dialogue — welcoming deviations, provoking surprises, encouraging the emergence of unexpected forms. I am interested in what artificial intelligence can imagine.
Today my artistic process continues to evolve between image generation, conceptual development and reflective writing. Each work is part of a broader path that unites aesthetics, philosophy and algorithmic imagination.
STATEMENT
Two dimensions fascinate me deeply: the art of the image — for its ability to condense stories and arouse emotions; and the art of the word — for its ability to generate meanings and suggest visual worlds.
Artificial intelligence is the meeting point of these two paths. It is there that I explore — between algorithms and metaphors, between light and irony — a new way of seeing.
Each work is a fragment of dialogue between the visible and the invisible, between the structured and the spontaneous, between the human and the artificial.
I am a digital artist, an explorer of imaginary worlds, a narrator of images that ask more questions than they answer.
