As a result, there’s a growing need for visualization systems that can help scientists, emergency managers, and other concerned stakeholders to better prepare for potential catastrophic events. Since, of all these disasters, floods occur the most frequently (they account for 43% of natural disasters worldwide), predicting how they may impact a certain region has become vital to human survival.

Great art has, since time immemorial, strived to push boundaries, to question our views, our perspectives, and our understanding of reality. But the last two years have seen a drastic shift in the industry, as an increasing number of artists are using AI as their medium—for creating 2D images, synthesizing deep fake videos, and designing immersive experiences.
