Eyebeam invests in artists who create with technology and explore how it influences the way we live.

The countdown has begun for The PublicSpaces Conference: For a Collective Internet, set to take place on June 27 and 28. Emma Yedema, editor and producer at PublicSpaces, sat down with Abdo Hassan for an interview.

A toolkit for everyone about how AI replicates racial injustice in our society and what can be done about it

Use the power of Artificial Intelligence to generate intimate, thoughtful, and beautiful letters.

The Intersectional AI Toolkit gathers ideas, ethics, and tactics for more ethical, equitable tech. It shows how established queer, antiracist, antiableist, neurodiverse, feminist communities contribute needed perspectives to reshape digital systems. The toolkit also offers approachable guides to both intersectionality and AI. This endeavor works from the hope that code can feel approachable for everyone, can move us toward care and repair—rather than perpetuating power imbalances—and can do so by embodying lessons from intersectionality.

Most musicians are not VJs. But if you still want to have appealing visuals to enhance your live music, AI can help. In this article we discuss an example that was made for Kay Slice, a Dutch-Ghanaian afro-futurism artist. The visual belongs to a live song that is getting wilder and that's why the visuals are getting more and more expressive. Below you can find the end result. This example uses Dall-E, a simple text-to-image system. With Dall-E you generate images and you can also ask the system

To further the understanding of training data, the Knowing Machines Project developed SeeSet, an investigative tool for examining the training datasets for AI. Here you will find nine essays from individual members of our team. Each one uses SeeSet to explore a key AI dataset and its role in the construction of 'ground truth.'

Free workshop: (Ab)using AI as an artist [in English] The onset of publicly available AI-generation for images and text can be a source of existential stress for artists. Virtually any style can be copied now. Complex, intricate compositions are just a prompt away. Making things that appear to be art no longer requires years of study and practice. The uncanny valley has been bridged and we have arrived as pioneers at a new digital frontier. Here, well-trained intelligent beings have dedicated their existence to devising a facsimile of human imagination and creativity. To do so, they make use of the billions of examples we have digitized and uploaded ourselves over the last few decades. We constructed artificial intelligence to assist us in our daily lives, to work more effectively and to reduce (manual) labor. As with anything digital, the goal is to create less friction and easier transactions. Now, the robots are asked to make art while the markets seem more overheated than ever. Once again, automation has led to more work, not more free time. Still, they are dependent on human input. What if these new technologies were (ab)used in a way that makes your life as an artist a lot easier? If students can prompt an AI to do their homework, why wouldn’t there be similar uses for this technology for your life as an artist? On Thursday the 13th of July artists Dakota Havard and Sjef van Beers will give you some insight into the latest developments in the relationship between machine learning and autonomous art. In a workshop format they will introduce you to the available tools and will help you make the robots do the dirty work for you. From writing application text to conjuring up whole exhibitions, the potential for removing a lot of the bureaucratic hurdles involved with being an artist is enormous. The workshop (Ab)using AI as an artist is organised by Singular-Art and Dakota Havard in close collaboration with Lindenberg Kunst en Technologie, platform for art and technology. At the time of this event Dakota will have his first solo at Singular-Art (Waalkade 72), FEAIR, which opens on the 8th of July and runs until the 20th of August. This workshop is in English. You can join for free. Sign up with an email to info@oddstream.nl.
