This piece is inspired by the lyrics of “Una Furtiva Lagrima” and the magnificent interpretation by Vittorio Grigolo. “Una Furtiva Lagrima” is sung by Nemorino who is madly in love with Adina but she is not interested in an innocent, rustic man such as he. He then decides to buy a love potion that is in reality just cheap wine, but when he sees Adina weeping, he assumes the “elixir” has worked and she has fallen in love with him. I wanted to see how we could modernize Donizetti’s opera, which was written at the beginning of the 19th century, in order to bring it into the Web3 era of digital art. I fed the story to different forms of artificial intelligence and sometimes completed sentences from the opera were used as prompts. One thing that was fascinating was how different translations from part of the lyrics could give me totally different results.
