AI Lab
The European ARTificial Intelligence Lab (AI Lab) is a follow-up project to the European Digital Art and Science Network, a creative collaboration between scientific institutions, Ars Electronica and cultural partners throughout Europe that unites science and digital art. The European ARTificial Intelligence Lab follows on from this and addresses visions, expectations and fears that we associate with artificial intelligence. The consortium consists of 13 cultural institutions from Europe with Ars Electronica as coordinator. This online archive provides an overview of all activities carried out during the project's lifetime from 2018 to 2021. It also provides information about the network itself, the residency artists and juries, and the project partners involved. The AI Lab is co-funded by the EU program "Creative Europe (2014-2020)" and by the Federal Ministry of Arts, Culture, Civil Service and Sport.

• Info (DE): Ars Electronica Journeys ist ein völlig neues Format, das sich inmitten eines Umdenkens des Festival entwickelt hat. KünstlerInnen, ForscherInnen und kreative ProduzentInnen wurden eingeladen, Video-Touren vorzubereiten, die interaktive Führungen ohne physische Anwesenheit des Publikums ermöglichen. Darüber hinaus können die Guides ZuschauerInnen in ihre “Welt” einladen, indem sie nicht nur einen exklusiven Einblick in ihre Fachgebiete und künstlerischen Praktiken bieten, sondern auch die für ihre Arbeit relevante Umgebung vorstellen – seien es ihre Labore, inspirierende öffentliche Orte oder ihre bevorzugten Spazierwege. Alle Reisen werden in unterschiedlichen Rahmen realisiert. Die Reisen des European Artificial Intelligence Lab legen einen Schwerpunkt auf aktuelle Themen und Entwicklungen im Bereich der künstlichen Intelligenz.
• Info (EN): Ars Electronica Journeys is an entirely new format which evolved in the midst of rethinking the festival. Artists, researchers and creative producers were invited to prepare video journeys, providing interactive guided tours without the audience’s physical presence. Beyond that, the journey guides can really invite the viewers into their “world” by not just offering exclusive insight into their fields of expertise and artistic practices, but sharing surroundings relevant to their work – be it their labs, inspiring public places, or their favorite walking routes to mull over ideas. All of the journeys are realized in different frameworks. The European Artificial Intelligence Lab journeys put a spotlight on cutting-edge topics and developments in the realm of artificial intelligence.

A Centaur Journey by Cecilie Waagner Falkenstrøm (DK)
How can we better comprehend the challenges and possibilities of artificial intelligence in art? And how do human-technology hybrids transform artistic practice? This video tour scrutinizes such questions and suggests that the increasing usage of machine learning in artistic practice calls for a re-examination of the artistic relationship between human and non-human actors. In this video journey, artist Cecilie Waagner Falkenstrøm will reflect upon her artistic practice, utilizing machine learning (RNN, NLP, Reinforcement Learning) to create the modern dance piece, Centaur. Audiences will be able to follow the creation of the piece, listen to Cecilie and modern dance instructor Pontus Lidberg discuss their thoughts on how machine intelligence transforms artistic practice, and watch rehearsals where the AI persona David takes the lead in instructing the dancers. Project Credits / Acknowledgements These video commissions are co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union in the framework of the European ARTificial Intelligence Lab. Biography Cecilie Waagner Falkenstrøm is an award-winning artist using new media (e.g. machine learning) to create interactive artworks. Her work has been exhibited internationally e.g. at Victoria and Albert Museum in London, Experimenta 2020 in France and Click Festival in Denmark. Her piece “ARTificial Intelligence FRANK” was awarded The Lumen Prize and the British Art and Humanities Research Counsel’s TECHNE Award.
