Description
Robotics, Electronics and Artificial Intelligence
Moderated by: Hye Yeon Nam and Jan Searleman
The 4th SPARKS online Zoom session will feature presenters who create art using robotics, electronics, or artificial intelligence. In popular culture, robots and artificial intelligence are often depicted as menacing, unethical and sinister threats to humanity. Yet these technologies have the potential to positively impact social and cultural systems as well as transform life as we know it. Artists have been working with electronics, robotics and AI to explore, speculate, and reflect on the broader relationship between human, machine, and the environment.
This session features presentations of artworks and research that stimulate people to view the world in different ways, provoke innovative interactions, spark creative responses, and challenge our notion of technology’s potential.
