Agarthi - a new life
The video is a short film made entirely with AI tools, which metaphorically shows, in the form of visual content, the gestation process (inspired by a real and personal story) of a little girl named Agarthi. Agarthi is also a name with a strong symbolic content, being the name of the legendary city that is said to be underground in Central Asia, where the king of the world and an advanced and refined civilization live. As the kingdom of Agarthi is located at the center of the Earth, the unborn Agarthi is in the mother's womb, until the moment of her birth at the end of the film. The video is divided into several parts, each of which represents a moment of pregnancy: 1. Conception, with the figurative dance of the jellyfish-cells in an underwater cave, Agarthi precisely; 2. The formation of the fetus, represented by the perfection, beauty and magic of the piano that materializes from drops of water: in this scene the ultrasound of the baby and the auscultation of the first heartbeat are also metaphorically represented 3. The journey of the unborn child towards the “exit”, through vortex and tunnels of colors and underwater caves 4. The birth, with the baby's crying and the door to the “Kingdom of Agarthi” that opens and closes at the same time. Furthermore, metaphorically, Agarthi is not just a baby, but represents the birth of a new form of creating and enriching content, namely artificial intelligence.

I am Piergiorgio Montrucchio. I am an engineer, I work in the financial sector, but I have a passion for art, writing, painting and since the advent of AI I am also extremely passionate about AI video making, even if not professional. My dream is to make the film of the book I wrote in 2023 dedicated to my daughter
