16.5.2024, 7:00 pm – What Is AI Doing to Art?
The third edition of the AI series by ZEIT STIFTUNG BUCERIUS focuses on artificial intelligence and art. Can AI create “real” art and how creative is the tool? How and where can it be used in the artistic processes, and what is the potential of works created with the help of AI? Who is actually the author then? What are the implications of bots and algorithms that shape our world view, also in relation to historical narratives and manifestations of colonial power inequalities?
The composer, director, computer scientist and professor Alexander Schubert, the multi-award-winning interdisciplinary artist Vanessa Amoah Opoku and Dorothea Winter, philosopher, author and AI scientist at the Humanistische Hochschule Berlin will discuss these and other exciting aspects of AI, its artistic possibilities and limits, together with the audience at M.Bassy e.V..
Moderation: Nelly Y. Pinkrah, media and cultural scientist, TU Dresden and Leuphana University Lüneburg.
The live talk is embedded in the exhibition »Beyond Al: Resistance & Coexistence« which features works by five outstanding AI artists from the African continent and diaspora: Minne Atairu, Nkhensani Mkhari, Jazmin Morris, Vanessa Amoah Opoku & Linda Dounia Rebeiz.
