Abstract
The Project, the Church of AI, taps into the opportunities of Artificial Intelligence as a device for Architecture Design in a twofold way: On the one side by employing a design technique that is based on the ability of Artificial Intelligence to generate form autonomously of human interaction, and on the other hand by speculating about the nature of devotion, the sublime and awe in a posthuman society.
