Created in tandem with music composer Wojciech Urbański, a single called “Machine Phoenix” is being released today which forms part of the first-ever metaverse-specific soundtrack.

The project is called the “Everdome Original Metaverse Soundtrack”. It will give a unique atmosphere and background ambiance to Everdome’s hyper-realistic landscape, which is based on a future Mars settlement, using blockchain and VR technology.

Wojciech Urbański is a gifted composer with a portfolio of award-winning tracks that have been used by the likes of Netflix and Canal+. Wojciech’s Spotify community currently comprises over 600,000 monthly listeners, while overall, his tracks have been played more than 50 million times. The Everdome project hopes to use the composer’s talents to add drama to its hyper-realistic storytelling and visuals.

“Creating a musical illustration of the cosmos and space exploration is probably a dream held by every composer. This collaboration is for me a great artistic opportunity, as the setting of an immersive metaverse world permits the use of a very wide range of sounds and tools,” says Wojciech Urbański.

Metaverse users will hear Wojciech’s work as they launch from Everdome’s virtual Hatta spaceport to the Mars Cycler, situated in Earth’s lower orbit, with the musical collaboration evoking a similar atmosphere to Harry Gregson-Williams’ soundtrack for “The Martian” or Hans Zimmer’s “Dune”.

As well as partnering with Wojciech Urbański, Everdome is also utilizing the talents of Michał Fojcik, a sound supervisor and designer who has worked on blockbusters including X-Men: Dark Phoenix and Solo. A Star Wars Story.

“Building a sonic background for a metaverse experience is a uniquely challenging task. In the absence of true forms of touch or smell, the visual and the sonic take on huge levels of importance if the experience is to be considered truly hyper-realistic,” says Michał Fojcik, sound supervisor and advisor.

Both artists will be dedicated to the creation of a sonic soundscape that will significantly enhance the quality of Everdome’s storytelling, and you can hear the first single from their collaboration, “Machine Phoenix”, on all major music distribution platforms, including Spotify, Anghami, and YouTube from today.

Adobe Reveals New AI Tools That Will Wow Photoshop Novices

On Tuesday, April 23, Adobe announced a beta version of Photoshop boasting several fresh features aimed at helping users generate new images and manipulate existing files through text prompts. The latest generative AI additions harness the power of Adobe’s new Firefly Image 3 model.

Among the highlights of the update is the Generate Image tool, designed to generate images based on textual cues, providing users who struggle with a blank canvas a starting point to work from. Additionally, Generative Fill, an existing tool for background completion or image expansion, now incorporates a Reference Image function. The enhancement enables users to guide the tool’s output towards a specific aesthetic or theme by uploading an image as a reference.

The new AI tools significantly simplify the process of translating creative ideas into images and should be useful to both Photoshop novices and seasoned pros. Firefly Image 3 now has the ability to produce astonishingly realistic images, and its enhanced understanding of text prompts is now considered industry-leading.

Despite facing scrutiny over its training data and a backlash from certain segments of the creative community, Adobe remains committed to integrating generative AI features into its entire software suite. The company continues to assert that Firefly is a safe, ethical option for commercial use and positions it as an alternative to competitors like Midjourney and Stable Diffusion —both of which have faced allegations of using copyrighted material without proper attribution or compensation.

Despite Adobe’s confidence in Firefly’s abilities, recent findings have uncovered that its training dataset includes AI-generated images sourced from Midjourney and similar platforms, raising questions about the integrity of Adobe’s claims regarding the model’s commercial viability.

While Adobe maintains that its generative AI models are trained on licensed or public domain content from Adobe Stock, enthusiast Nick St. Pierre recently pointed out on X (formerly Twitter) that “over 13% of all images on Adobe Stock are AI-generated,” and that “most of the generated content comes from Dalle and Midjourney”.
