700 years is a significant timeframe to hear many things about oneself.
Now, we live in a technological age, when those thoughts can be not only heard, but with the help of AI – seen. We‘ve collected 70 thoughts about Vilnius expressed by iconic people – writers, painters, visionaries, and leaders... Which became an inspiration for AI to dream 70 visuals of never seen before Vilnius.
