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.

    • DESCRIPTION
    • TEXT
    The Museum of the Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero Art and Science Center was established in 2010 in Tecnopolis Science and Technology park in Buenos Aires City. The Muntref Centro de Arte y Ciencia is a nodal space for Artists and Scientists interactions by means of transdisciplinary projects at the very same place. It promotes person to person collaborations looking for relevant common questions for Artists and Scientists.Since 2010, many projects have been stablished with different kind of organizations of people and technical resources.

    Muntref Centro de Arte y Ciencia main partner is Laboratorio de Neurociencia de la Universidad Torquato Ditella for Artificial Intelligence and Neuroscience projects. The network also established collaborations with other researchers and institutions in Argentina and abroad. Some of them are: Universidad de Buenos Aires (Argentina), Universidad Nacional de Quilmes (Argentina), Oxford University (UK), IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center (USA), Turku University (Finlandia), Universidad de Valencia (Spain), University College of Volda (Norway), Universidad Católica Argentina (UCA), University of Vaasa (Finland), Universidad de los Andes (Colombia), elBulli Lab – Ferrán Adria, Université de Perpignan (France).

    The Museum of the Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero, Centro de Arte y Ciencia (Muntref Art-Sci Center), was based in 2011 in Tecnopolis Science and Technology Park in Buenos Aires City. Initially established due to transdisciplinary researches among Art and Neuroscience made by Mariano Sardón (artist) and Mariano Sigman (neuroscientist); Muntref Art-Sci Center became a nodal platform for sustainable collaboration projects between artists and scientists. Since then, additional investigations were included connecting Electronic Arts to visual cognition of still and moving image as well as text and musical partitures reading. Later, Artificial Intelligence - Data visualization and sound; Semantics analysis for text; mathematical models applied to music, Synthetic Biology, Mechatronic interfaces for medical rehabilitation; trans-modal perception studies among other topics.

    Art and Science can be thought of performatic practices implying a way to do things in ordinary life in scientific labs, academic institutions and artistic contexts, sometimes very separated one of each other. In this sense, the Muntref Art-Sci Center can be considered as a Meta-Lab that fostering the growth of a spread ecosystem constituted by linked persons and technical resources. It promotes the relationship between necessary contexts for the development of transdisciplinary projects that need to traverse scientific, artistic, technological and other territories.

    Initial partners of the Muntref Art-Sci Center network were the Neuroscience Laboratory of the Universidad de Buenos Aires and Neuroscience Laboratory of the Universidad Torquato Di Tella. Additional institutions from Argentina and abroad were linked by the inclusion of new investigations and staff like, Ars Electronica (Austria), Universidad Nacional de Quilmes (Argentina), Oxford University (UK), IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center (USA), Turku University (Finland), Universidad de Valencia (Spain), University College of Volda (Norway), Universidad Católica de Argentina (UCA), University of Vaasa (Finland), Universidad de Los Andes (Colombia), Ferrán Adria’s Bullilab (Spain), Université de Perpignan (France) and the Argentinean space technology company INVAP.

    Muntref Art-Sci Center is also an educational transdisciplinary platform for the Electronic Arts Degree Program at the Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero. Every research project is constituted by a group of students and scholarships that accomplish regular access to laboratories in different institutions, acquainting with protocols in site everyday life guided by professionals. Students spend time familiarizing with relevant theories, frameworks, methods and exchanging ideas and debates incorporating multiple perspectives. Through this practice, Muntref Art-Sci Center attempts to stimulate a generation of people trained in transdisciplinary thinking and practices, aiming at a more integrated and inclusive society.
