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.

The Practice of Art and AI - text GLUON

GLUON is a Brussels-based organization for art, science and technology. Since its inception, GLUON has been raising awareness about global challenges. After all, a thriving society builds on a balanced interaction between the human and exact sciences, between people, their technological achievements, and the natural environment on which they depend. We find interactions between researchers, artists, citizens and youngsters indispensable in a joint search for solutions to the dangers and challenges that affect this system. To this end, GLUON developed a platform that maximizes collaborations and confrontations between these different actors. Our most important mission is to stimulate partnerships between artists, research and industry. The Art&Research operation of GLUON facilitates and supports artist residencies in the R&D departments of companies and research institutions on the one hand, and scientist residencies in the studios of artists on the other. These interactions provide artistic and philosophical results, but also innovative ideas, services and products in non-artistic sectors. In the past years GLUON has realized several residency projects exploring the role and impact of artificial intelligence within society. The educational program or “GLUON Education” is the other important pillar of GLUON. The educational activities aimed at (Brussels) young people aged 14 to 18 support them through the arts in the development of digital skills, critical thinking, creativity and entrepreneurship. GLUON realizes its program in collaboration with a growing number of international and national partners.
