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 (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.
• 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.

What Matters Now? by Sarah Petkus (US)
In the wake of the global COVID-19 pandemic, daily life has been disrupted and given room to change; from the comfort of routine to the energy that fuels the creation of electronic and robotic work. While staying safe in her personal laboratory in Las Vegas, Nevada, technologist Sarah Petkus has been using this time to re-evaluate what it means to be a content creator and artist in this unique era where humans are limited by the constraints of physical isolation, yet connected in abundance through virtual platforms and social media. As the lines between private and professional life blur, she hopes to find new forms of meaning amidst the uncertainty. 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 Sarah Petkus is an artist who creates mechanical-electronic devices, and robotic entities derived from their own character illustrations. Their goal in doing so is to challenge the way humans relate to technology, encouraging reflection and the consideration of empathy towards the inanimate things we share our lives with.
