Taking advantage of the Google portal platform: "Deep Dream Generator", which creates "dreamlike" alterations from images that users upload to the platform, through an "artificial dream" process, where an artificial neural network performs a similar process to "dream" as it makes a series of decisions, based on algorithms for recognizing elements of reality in order to alter the image organically and result in an image product of the "dream" of artificial intelligence.

It is then that the project # 0niric0 is carried out, which consists of the use of the Google image search engine and the use of the “dream” tag to search for images in the collective unconscious of the network that fall within the search pattern. Once several images were obtained, they were uploaded to Google's deep dream generator so that the same artificial intelligence "dreamed" of them. The resulting images are a technological, dreamlike and photographic tautology of the platform created by Google.
