The band collaborated with A.I artist Huxley for their 'Invisible' music video.

They're the latest group to release an NFT - non-fungible token - in the latest growing trend for musicians and artists.

If you want to get your hands on some Duran Duran art, they're releasing 100 of the tokens.

Called the INVISIBLE Collection, it's available from Thursday, December 16th at 1 pm EST / 6 pm GMT on the OpenSea platform.

They're being released by CUB3 in conjunction with LA-based Gabba Gallery, priced at 0.2 Ethereum.

An Ethereum is currently costing £2,927.54

The A.I artist Huxley has been described as "a unique dreamer with its own A.I brain", and created the band's music video.

The NFTs have been curated from imagery in the video, which you can watch below.

Huxley’s A.I. ‘mind’ was created by Nested Minds Networks.

They say that Huxley creates and dreams in the same way a person does.

The imagery was created using an established technique called ‘active inference', a method originally created by Karl Friston, who was one of the most influential neuroscientists in history.

Huxley imagined the visuals seen in the video, from the lyrics and emotional tone of the song.

Today (Wednesday 15 December) at 6 pm GMT, Duran Duran's Nick Rhodes will be discussing the project on Twitter for an hour.
