ARS ELECTRONICA ARCHIVE – 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.

Does the Earth dream? Can our dreams mesh? In The Wandering Mind, the pervasive sensing, fiber and neural networks covering our planet meet us in our sleep, drawing source material from vast online stores of field recordings and sensor data. For this year’s festival, we ask our AI to dream in the sounds of water and currents, retelling the myth of Tiamat, the sea mother whose life takes a tragic turn when her rebellious children seek power. The story mirrors our modern relationship with Earth’s oceans.
The Wandering Mind
In dreams, we become free of the unrelenting coherence waking life imposes; free to sink into the swamps of planetary perception. The Freudian dream-work finds its match in a class of self-supervised AIs, neural networks tasked to learn concise representations of raw data, and whose operation hinges on a kind of iterative, suffusing imagination.
For this year’s festival, we paint a dream with sounds of water and currents: a retelling of the myth of Tiamat, the sea mother whose life takes a tragic turn when her rebellious children seek power. The story mirrors our modern relationship with Earth’s oceans.
The listening experience is shared online. Though we may remain confined to our homes, our minds are always free to wander. We recommend settling into a darkened, comfy corner. Consider synchronizing your nap with a distant friend to share the dream.
