Robots have stopped being clumsy automats to become artistic collaborators. Thanks to machine learning, these non-human entities learn from their creators and collaborate with them.
For this session, the artist and researcher Sougwen Chung, known for her particular use of robotics, AI and visual arts, offers a talk about creative collaboration between humans and robots: “Machines as creative catalysts”, where she wonders: What happens when humans and machines collaborate together?
Barcelona's new media artist and coder Mónica Rikić, specialized in experimental games and interaction, presents in "Tecnología alternativa: imaginar otras máquinas conscientes a través del arte", her most recent work, which features interactive narratives and social robots, questioning our approach towards non-human entities, and the omnipotent role of AI.
