Famous Leonardo da Vinci`s painting comes to life. The digital “Living Mona Lisa”, which employs artificial intelligence technology, has been produced by a team of 40 French technicians and artists, who worked on the project for nearly a year. Florent Aziosmanoff, who was the founder of the interactive version, said the idea was to convert the Mona Lisa into a modern format: "Now she can sense changes in her surroundings. Leonardo da Vinci tried to make her come alive , so it’s appropriate that we’ve taken his intentions a few steps further". A digital version of the famous Leonardo da Vinci`s painting allows her to turn her head, pucker her lips, frown and even breathe. Mr Aziosmanoff, who specializes in “digital, living art”, said he chose the Mona Lisa because “she is the best known and one of the most icon ic characters in the history of art”. The digital Mona Lisa, or Joconde as it is called in France, uses motion sensors from video game consoles to detect when a viewer is looking at it, which allow to react. The painting itself hangs in the Louvre museum in Paris , but digital versions will be produced in different sizes and formats. Digital paintings are to go on sale in the autumn this year.
