AI-Created Illustrations
All original station and collection illustrations used throughout Orbital Memory are created using AI, with OpenAI’s image-generation tools in Codex. The visual direction, prompts, refinements and final selections are guided and reviewed by the project’s creator.
These illustrations establish the archive’s imagined setting. They are not official artwork, historical photographs or depictions of scenes from the cataloged works. Creator portraits and film artwork are credited separately above.
