2019

From Generative AI to Immersive Worlds

We started developing a new technology inspired by a genuine desire for deeper human connection during the lockdowns of COVID-19.

Journee was founded in late 2019 with a vision to push the boundaries of technology through AI. Our crowning achievement was Helin, the world's first AI-designed sculpture, crafted from Italian marble. But COVID-19 made it impossible to unveil this extraordinary AI-designed masterpiece within esteemed museums and galleries, leaving the team unable to showcase the global sensation that Helin truly is.

However, the setback only fueled our determination to find a solution exhibiting Helin globally in the quality that it deserves. The idea of a virtual museum was born. And it became a pivotal decision for the future of the whole company. Inspired by its success, Journee evolved into enabling branded immersive spaces for enterprises that would capture hearts and minds alike.

If an aesthetic object is created without any human purpose, do we witness an accidental product of nature or do we perceive new forms of artificial intentions? The sculpture Helin embodies an organic data mirror emerging from our collective historical heritage. Our technical approach is based upon a novel procedure for Deep Learning in 3D space. The corresponding custom network architecture is trained on 120.000 historical sculptures and generates new alternative bodies 30 times a second. We enable insights into historical, spatial data of human expressions and translate this assembled intelligence into a natural and tangible artefact of heavy dark marble.

2030

A big part of what we do online everyday will be immersive
