The conference discusses the role of technology in creative practices. We aim to underline what kinds of changes, ideas, trends, and methodologies technology has introduced into art and design. We would like to take a closer look at topics like AI and machine learning. What can AI offer to creative communities? And what kind of impact will these computationally expensive processes have on our environment, design and art?
Conference: Decoding New Technologies in Art and Design
The conference discusses the role of technology in creative practices. On the one hand, we aim to underline what kinds of changes, ideas, trends, and methodologies technology has introduced into art and design. On the other hand, the conference offers a venue for exploring new concepts, ideas, and dangers that the technological age introduces, today and in the future. More specifically, we will take a closer look at topics like AI and machine learning. What can AI offer to creative communities? Will it boost creativity and innovation or replace human creativity with computational creativity? And what kind of impact will these computationally expensive processes have on our environment, design and art?
The conference invites local experts and practitioners to debate and share their ideas on these topics.
