ἐκγραφῆς · eucrasia
ἐκγραφῆς | eucrasia 1–7 is a series by Anna Utopia Giordano combining poetry, artificial intelligence and digital post-production. The series explores the translation of poetic language into images through text-to-image generative systems. For eucrasia 1–7, the poem eucrasia, taken from Utopia's poetic triptych Omne Trinus Est Perfectum, was used together with specific technical parameters as a prompt for a text-to-image artificial intelligence. The resulting images were subsequently post-produced, completing the translation from text to image.

Eucrasia
jinn sussurra alleli simmetrici,
lecca funzioni suriettive,
inghiotte recettori dactilitici,
e invoca ambliopia,
tenaglie e pulsioni ottiche
sciolte in assegni inflessi:
ciò di cui gli uomini si nutrono.
Iblis sussurra il mio nome,
sorrido, si brucia.
