Inside The Mind of Ikuo Yamamoto
Who Is Ikuo?
Tokyo-based director and AI visual artist exploring memory, identity, and transformation through cinematic AI filmmaking. His work sits in the space between dream and documentation — part narrative, part hallucination.
Creative Philosophy
"When I write prompts, it feels like I'm reaching into my subconscious. The AI doesn't create the vision — it reveals what was already there."
What Drives His Work?
"I look for fragments I've never seen before, yet instinctively recognize the moment they appear. That tension between the familiar and the impossible is where I live."
Current Projects
New short films including international gallery installations, festival submissions across Berlin and Tokyo, and a collaboration with composer Nakashima Yui on an AI music film project.
