NooGrams

By Celso Singo Aramaki + AI

Our Mission At Noograms is to advance storytelling through the integration of art and artificial intelligence. We believe that narratives have the power to connect, inspire, and transform, and we are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the realm of interactive stories.

The Noograms Project is a project that combines a graphic novel, a narrative engine lab, and AI-driven characters to create an immersive storytelling experience.

  1. The Graphic Novel
    • Story of Noograms: At the heart of Noograms is a graphic novel created by Celso Singo Aramaki, which tells the story of an indie grunge rock band navigating the vibrant cultural landscape of New York City in the 1990s. Inspired by the Noosphere concept by Teilhard de Chardin, the Synergy concept from Buckminster Fuller, and The Long Now Clock by Stewart Brand, the novel explores themes of creativity, identity, and the challenges of pursuing artistic dreams. The band members discuss their future as a group and their individual paths as young adults.
  2. The Noograms Framework
    • Narrative Engine Lab: The framework of Noograms serves as a lab for testing and developing narrative engines. Using advanced AI technologies, we create tools that enable the crafting of interactive, dynamic narratives. This lab is a space for experimentation and innovation, where storytellers can harness the power of AI to enhance their creative projects.
  3. AI-Driven Characters
    • Intelligent Agents: Characters from the graphic novel are brought to life as AI agents, each with their own specific knowledge base, backstory, personality, and psychological profile. These AI-driven characters can interact with users, provide insights, and evolve over time, adding a new layer of depth to the narrative experience.
