My artistic practice is rooted in the hacker culture where technology is liberated from its intended use and the freedom to operate and use technology for the purpose of new applications is encouraged. Hacking involves disrupting the status quo and challenging artificial limits on technology set by business or political actors. So called hacktivism challenges how society adopts and uses (new) technologies. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) has become ubiquitous and this impacts how I reflects on my artistic process. AI is no longer just a tool, but also an inspiration and collaborator in a creative process. The age of post-human creativity has begun and I push technology through in his artistic research , installations and livecoding performances all while maintaining the ever so important bond with the human soul and questioning the technology itself.
it can also make noise!
yes I did try building these "red button" fire and forget creative systems.
magic
give me all your data
how to become a good AI artist?
so just throw a lot of dice?
Live coding
feedback loop, for computer instruments this is as important as for live instruments
tools : computers & software
interaction : with humans, with the computers
data : to interact with, live input or a database
model : AI or a reasoning algorithms
Computational Creativity System
instrument with Human-Computer interaction
I made that up, It should be refined, but I'm gonna go with it. Please challenge it
calculator creativity
apparently a human can be beaten by a beefy calculator at a task where that specific human appears to be the best of all humans.
keep the human in the loop
BOTBOP
botbop
"KEEP THE HUMAN IN THE LOOP" muziek te maken met AI zijn we er dus nog niet, maar wij hebben er met botbop wel iets op gevonden… Botbop is een band, de naam komt voort uit “robot bebop” . Opgestart in tijdens corona, als een onderzoek om te kijken of we een computerbandlid zouden kunnen maken vormen om mee samen te spelen kreeg het project een interessante wending toen we uitgenodigd werden om op Sonar in Barcelona te spelen. De vraag was of we een live instrument konden toevoegen. Andrew Claes had al langer een idee op de plank liggen om met strijkers te spelen en de beats van Dago Sondervan en live AI gestuurde compositie van Andrew werden met 8 maten vertraging omgezet in partituren die een strijkkwartet a prima vista interprteerde en speelden.
Keep the humans in the loop! Experiment and do stuff that has not been done before
The Mirror
the mirror : collaboration with Nicolas Provost
emotions are hard for computers, but you can create emotional experiences using computational creativity
