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 project of the artist duo “Slow Immediate” is now being realized through residencies at the Muntref Centro de Arte y Ciencia, the Laboratorio de Neurociencia de la Universidad Torquato Ditella in Buenos Aires, and the Ars Electronica Futurelab in Linz. The result will then be presented at the Ars Electronica Festival in Linz in September 2020 and at the Muntref Centro de Arte y Ciencia in Buenos Aires.

    The Wandering Mind is an AI system for dream states. Sampling and recomposing tiny fragments of sound from thousands of global field recordings it finds online, the system generates a winding dream journey for sleeping audiences. When used as a live instrument, the platform presents the performer with an AI-generated mind map of the fragmented sound recordings, which allows them to travel fluidly through the material. In its installation and research format, an AI guide autonomously charts a path with its audience in a feedback loop, as the guide seeks to maintain the audience in a continual state of falling asleep and daydreaming.
    This residency project was also presented as the AI Lab Journey Hearing, Recording, Wandering at the Ars Electronica Festival 2020.

    Presented at Ars Electronica & Onassis Stegi

    The Wandering Mind was produced with support from MAXmachina, Nicholas Gillian, and Nan Zhao / Nayo. Research and development on the AI platform is underway at DVIC, Paris, with the support of Pôle Léonard de Vinci, Muntref Centro de Arte y Ciencia, Buenos Aires, and Laboratorio de Neurociencia de la Universidad Torquato Ditella, Buenos Aires.
