And the preview of Milan, Factory of the Future

Generative artificial intelligence allows artists to create narratives that escape the confines of traditional structures, giving rise to a new kind of storytelling, in which the creative process is characterized by continuous transformation.

Mauro Martino is an Italian scientist and artist who focuses on information technology. He uses AI to explore and enhance understanding of the world, transforming any type of information, whether it is visual, acoustic, or semantic, into interactive tools that are beautiful and simple to use.

During the talk Mauro Martino will show his creative process based on using generative AI to create videos from texts, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in two of his latest works: Mapping the NFTs Revolution and the preview of Milan, Factory of the Future. These narratives are inherently dynamic, emerging from a collage of texts, poems, interviews, plays, often characterized by a dreamlike, surreal and futuristic quality, inviting the viewer to immerse themselves in a world created by the encounter between language and image.

Please note: Limited capacity, registration required – in addition to a valid ticket, you need a (free) ticket reservation for the respective event in advance. Reservations for Deep Space 8K events must be scanned on-site no later than 15min before the programme starts.
