To create this atlas, natural objects (rocks) and anthropogenic substances are sampled during expeditions to geological outcrops. They become specimens to train machine learning models and explore the latent space between the natural and artificial. The outcome—hybrid digital artifacts—are captioned by publicly accessible image classifier algorithms.
