The contemporary artists and designers in Seeing the Unseeable: Data, Design, Art at Art Center College of Design, each use different types of data as the basis for work that is both imaginative and informative. This exhibition is part of The Getty’s PST ART: Art and Science Collide programming.

From the gallery-

Seeing the Unseeable: Data, Design, Art explores selected works by contemporary artist and designers responding to data’s impact on daily life. The exhibition premise rises from the dawn of Big Data in the early 1990s, which brought with it advancements in the field of data visualization: the practice of representing vast quantities of information to make it understandable and engaging to the public. In its early forms, data visualization was most often used in map-making and creating statistical graphics, viewed largely as a tool to convey information in the sciences and support analytic reasoning. In recent years the field has become an influential force in contemporary culture, transforming visual literacy in the global cultural landscape.

Seeing the Unseeable considers data in the recent past and present, addressing issues related to data mining and invisible data, data humanism, and data’s relationship to our varied environments. Exploring a critical cultural moment in our relationship with the magnitudes of information that routinely bombard us, works in the exhibition draw attention to issues ranging from the vastness and capabilities of data technologies to the personal, social and humanitarian consequences of data collection and data systems.

About the video work above by Hyojung Seo–

Singapore Weather Data Drawing Series reconsiders data visualization as it develops beyond mere representation to aestheticization. As the title of the work suggests, this series of data are drawings aimed to build a visual narrative beyond the original scope of the data itself. The weather data drawings generally represent information about Singapore’s weather patterns, while also standing as abstract digital artworks. This visual loosening of data into a series of patterns and movements presents weather statistics thorough a visual sensation rather than a more conventional data visualization design. The essential link is the descriptive title. While the work may abstract Singapore’s weather patterns, the movement and shapes designed by Seo also expand the meaning of the information as a kind of living, organic form.

About the above work by Linnéa Gabriella Spransy–

Described by Spransy as “procedural abstractions,” the paintings shown present an alternative to what may be considered data-driven art. While terms such as “data” and “generative art” are often used to describe digital-based imagery, the artist’s painting method lies at the heart of data and data visualization: number patterns. The Prime Mover paintings demonstrate the intimate working relationship between the artist and pure data. Spransy begins by constructing linear patterns using prime number sequences onto the prepared canvas. From this accumulated form, she then selects areas to pour paint over. After the paint dries, she initiates another pattern that grows around the existing intrusions. This push and pull of structure and chaos creates a field of balance and counterbalance, an ebb and flow between the artist, the numbers, and the seemingly shifting, multiple layers and dimensions of her paintings.

About the above work by Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle and Storm Prototype: Cloud Prototype No. 2 and 4, 2006 (the hanging titanium sculptures in the first photo)-

Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle is recognized for a wide-ranging, multifaceted practice resulting in sculpture, large-scale instal-lations, photography, and video. Ranging in scale from modest to monumental, his works are the result of years of research and achieved working in collaboration with creatives, inventors, and technicians in a vast range of fields, from the physical and life sciences to earth sciences. Lu, Jack and Carrie (from The Garden of Delights) (1998) is comprised of three colorful digital prints: a series of abstractions based on images of DNA samples taken from imaging technologies utilized in genomic mapping and depicting “families” of friends selected in sequence. Storm Prototype: Cloud Prototype Nos. 2 and 4 2006) are hovering spectral forms manifested in three dimensions from the analysis and compilation of real weather data. Additionally, the works are inspired by the artist’s consideration of global migration patterns. These works represent the compulsory flow of nature, whether revealed in the sky, ocean, or over land, impervious to international boundaries.

About the above work Incroci (Crossings) by Giorgia Lupi and Ehren Shorday–

Described by the artists as data portraits, this collaborative project emerged from Lupi’s observation that “each person’s life may be unique and different, but when seen together, these distinct paths begin to form patterns.” For Incroci, a dataset was created by asking strangers, and their social media circles, to share five dates (day/month/year) representing significant life moments, from the day of their birth up to the year 2022. The project was conducted during the Covid-19 pandemic, which gave weight to the question of what could be considered a significant life moment. Incroci exemplifies the ways in which data visualization design is evolving to a level beyond merely providing an aesthetic framework for data to realizing subtext within the datasets. As Lupi states: “The more ubiquitous data becomes, the more we need to experiment with how to make it unique, contextual, intimate. The way we visualize is crucial because it is the key to translating numbers into concepts we can relate to.”

About the work above by Semiconductor–

Ruth Jarman and Joe Gerhardt, aka Semiconductor, have been collaborating for over 25 years working in sound, video, installation and sculpture. Referring to their work as technological sublime, they explore ways of experiencing nature mediated through the languages of science and technology. Spectral Constellations is a series of generative animations, driven by scientific data of young stars. This data, collected by scientists using a method called Spectroscopy, creates an understanding of structures around distant young stars, where gas and dust come together to form planets. Semiconductor have employed this spectral data as a physical material, translating it into rings of light which resemble gradiated discs of planetary and stellar formations. As the data ebbs and flows it introduces a sense of form and motion. Waveforms merge and interfere revealing patterns and rhythms, engaging our human tendency towards pattern recognition. The fragmented LED mosaics provide partial windows from which the spectral data shifts and shimmers.

About Fernanda Bertini Viégas and Martin Wattenberg‘s Wind Map-

Fernanda Viégas, a computational designer, and Martin Wattenberg, a mathematician and journalist, are known as pioneers in the field of data visualization. Their research has helped define visualization as a discipline and practice, creating interactive and open-source tools for examining a wide range of scientific, social, and artistic questions. Conceived as a personal art project, their iconic work Wind Map culls information from the National Digital Forecast Database, which is maintained by the National Weather Service and available to the public. Continually gathering these forecasts, which are time-stamped and revised each hour, the artists have created a “living portrait” of the wind landscape over the United States. To emphasize the beauty and distinction of this influential work, exhibition curators commissioned a special iteration of Wind Map without the city locations and names. The standard version of this piece remains in the public domain on their website: http://hint.fm/wind/

About Laurie Frick’s Moodjam Intense and Moodjam Mild-

In her exploration to humanize data, Frick creatively mines information from her own functional and behavioral patterns as part of her art practice. Inspired initially by the daily activity tracking of computer programmer Ben Lipkowitz, Frick began tracking her own sleep with an electroencephalogram headband, expanding it to her husband’s sleep patterns and then others. Initially mapping her moods with color swatches through Mood-jam.com, Frick expanded to track her temperament every few seconds using a combination of heart rate (HRV), facial recognition and galvanic skin response (GSR), assessing her stress, nervousness, and general mood every few seconds. The work shown is an interpretation of this compiled data, using boxes of countertop laminate samples that she sourced during an artist residency at the Headlands Art Center near San Francisco. Moodjam Intense and Moodjam Mild are the resulting gridded works.

About Peggy Weil’s 77 Cores–

Peggy Weil has long been engaged in exploring ways of seeing. Today she continues to inquire the realms of perception, investigating how we see, what we see, and how we can see beyond. When she heard about the Greenland Ice Sheets project which stores 2-mile-long poles of ice samples in meter long cylinders, she was compelled to document them. The ice cores-paleo thermometers holding ash from volcanic eruptions, pollen and environmental gasses-are, to Weil, “deep space holding very deep time.” As such they speak to the notion of the extended landscape: stretched out beyond what we perceive and see, hidden in the atmosphere or the earth underneath our feet. In 77 Cores, images of seventy-seven glacier ice-sheet cores are printed and laid out over twenty-four feet. allowing the viewer to mark time by walking its length.

About Sarah Morris and the Sound Graph paintings above-

Sarah Morris creates films, paintings, and sculptures based on a wide range of sources, including graphic logos, architectural space, transportation systems and maps, GPS technology, and the movement of people in urban locations. She has said, “I want to map what is going on, these situations we find ourselves in-both physically and philosophically.” The Sound Graph paintings are derived from fragments of conversations and sounds recorded by the artist and translated into hard-edged geometric shapes in vibrant patterns that seem to visually fluctuate. Her interest in incorporating sound into her paintings began when she conceived the film Finite and Infinite Games (2017), titled after the cult philosophy and numbers theory novel by James P. Carse. Morris sees her paintings as being part of a larger self-generating system, always remaining open and allowing for interpretation, motion and change.

About the works above by Mimi Ọnụọha–

The Library of Missing Datasets comprises three filing cabinets filled with folders the reveal unseen biases within the system of data collecting. According to the artist, this work is “a physical repository of those things that have been excluded in a society where so much is collected.” While data-collecting algorithms claim to provide comprehensive information, their vastness hides data-driven forms of inequity: what Ọnụọha considers “algorithmic violence.” Revealing the conditions surrounding invisible data, she “aims] to trouble assumptions baked into the beliefs and technologies that mediate our existences.” In Absentia (2019) presents six risograph prints in the style of twentieth-century African American sociologist W. E. B. Du Bois’ infographics presented at Exposition Universelle, the Paris World’s Fair, in 1900. Ọnụọha visually quotes from Du Bois to acknowledge his work’s significance and the injustice it has since suffered: the US Department of Labor and Statistics halted publishing of his sociological research on Black rural life in Alabama, claiming it to be too controversial.

Finally, the image above is of work from Refik Anadol’s AI data painting series– California Landscapes.

Refik Anadol is an artist, designer, and leader in the aesthetics of data and machine intelligence. Utilizing advanced technologies including Al, machine algorithms, and quantum computing, he has become known for large scale, immersive installations that render massive amounts of data into highly dynamic abstractions. The artist’s California Landscape series employs images of California’s national parks. Spawned from a dataset of over 153 million images, the largest dataset of this kind ever to be used for an artwork, the Generative Study works feature images that are recognizable. Yet as these majestic landscapes constantly morph, so does the matter that we conventionally identify as earth and sky. A series of interconnected lines imbue the images with additional references, in this case the algorithm driving this perpetual visual flux. In its varying juxtapositions of nature and technology, this work reminds us of how distinctive our perceptions of each may be.

This exhibition closes 2/15/25.

Individual research (Ali Kharaghanian)

One of the most fascinating immersive art pieces I came across was The Weather Project at the Tate Modern, where a massive sun was created, casting a warm atmosphere and a misty space that evoked a strange and captivating feeling for visitors. Mirrors were installed on the ceiling, allowing visitors to lie on the museum floor and see their reflections, making them feel like part of the artwork.

It felt like a land with a radiant yellow sun and an intensely warm atmosphere. The project’s concept offers a clear perspective on environmental issues and global warming, and even visitors who may not deeply engage with the topic can still feel its meaning and impact simply by being in the space.

What stood out to me was the way the project engaged the audience, inviting them to become part of the experience. In my interpretation, the people lying on the floor of the exhibition within this heated atmosphere symbolize those who, in the future, may perish due to rising global temperatures.

In Infinity Room by Refik Anadol, the most impactful aspect is the use of mirrors to create an endless, infinite space. Stepping into these mirrored rooms alters one’s perception of spatial dimensions, making it feel as though physical boundaries dissolve.

The installation features luminous geometric shapes that move fluidly within the space, drawing the viewer’s eye and creating a hypnotic visual experience. Accompanied by a slow, rhythmic soundtrack, the environment becomes immersive, pulling visitors deeper into the experience.

This sense of placelessness offers a new kind of experience—one that feels like a dimensionless dream. Moreover, the installation presents a modern interpretation of art and artistic experiences, introducing audiences to a level of immersion they may have never encountered before.

 explored many immersive art installations, but since many of them shared similarities and had already been analyzed, I sought out projects that integrated with natural environments and utilized their surroundings as part of the experience.

One such work is Field of Light by Bruce Munro, which transforms a natural garden setting into a surreal and extraordinary space using ground-level lights. The contrast between the complete darkness of night and the soft, glowing lights creates a meditative atmosphere, offering a deep sense of tranquility to visitors.

What makes this project even more remarkable is its harmony with the environment. The installation does not harm the surrounding greenery, and the use of solar panels to power the lights reflects the artist’s commitment to sustainability. Field of Light is not just a visual experience—it is a thoughtful blend of art, nature, and environmental consciousness.

The Art of Shape: Redefining Sculpture in the 21st Century

Introduction

Sculpture has long been a medium of artistic expression, evolving alongside human civilization. From the grandeur of Renaissance masterpieces to the bold abstractions of modernism, each era has left its mark on sculptural art. But what does sculpture look like in the 21st century?

Today’s artists are redefining shape, form, and material—pushing boundaries with new techniques, digital tools, and unconventional mediums. This article explores how contemporary sculptors are reshaping the art world and challenging traditional norms.

The Evolution of Sculpture: A Brief Overview

1. Classical Sculpture: The Birth of Form

Ancient sculptures were deeply rooted in realism and idealized human figures. Greek and Roman sculptures focused on: ✔ Proportions and balance (e.g., Michelangelo’s David) ✔ Religious and mythological themes ✔ Marble, bronze, and stone as primary materials

2. Modernist Sculpture: Breaking Away from Tradition

In the 20th century, artists rejected realism and embraced abstraction. Notable movements included:

Cubism – Fragmented, geometric shapes (Pablo Picasso, Umberto Boccioni)

Surrealism – Dreamlike, unconventional forms (Salvador Dalí, Henry Moore)

Minimalism – Stripping art to its essentials (Donald Judd, Tony Smith)

3. 21st Century Sculpture: The Era of Innovation

Today, sculpture is more than just static statues—it’s an interactive, digital, and conceptual experience. Artists are embracing:

New materials like plastic, resin, and recycled waste

Digital tools such as 3D printing and AI-generated design

Performance-based sculpture that integrates movement and sound

Key Trends Redefining Sculpture in the 21st Century

1. Digital Sculpting & 3D Printing

Technology has revolutionized the way sculptors work. Digital sculpting software like ZBrush and Blender allows artists to: ✔ Experiment with shapes before physically creating them ✔ Design intricate, impossible-to-carve forms ✔ Use 3D printing to bring digital models to life

Famous artist Joshua Harker creates intricate, lace-like sculptures using 3D printing, proving that the virtual and physical worlds are merging in art.

2. Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Sculpture

Environmental consciousness has led to an eco-art movement where sculptors repurpose waste materials into stunning works. Artists like Sayaka Ganz use discarded plastic objects to create fluid, dynamic sculptures.

3. Interactive & Kinetic Sculpture

Sculpture is no longer just something to observe—it’s something to experience. Kinetic and interactive sculptures move, respond, and engage audiences.

Theo Jansen’s “Strandbeests” – Wind-powered walking sculptures

Anthony Howe’s wind-driven kinetic sculptures – Hypnotic metalwork in motion

4. Augmented Reality & Virtual Sculpture

Some sculptors are ditching physical materials altogether. With AR (Augmented Reality) and VR (Virtual Reality), artists can create digital sculptures that exist only in virtual spaces.

Refik Anadol’s digital installations merge AI with fluid motion sculptures

Krista Kim’s "Mars House"—the first NFT digital sculpture home

5. Fusion of Sculpture & Performance Art

Some artists blur the line between sculpture and performance, using the body as a sculptural element.

Marina Abramović – Live performances as living sculptures

Nick Cave’s “Soundsuits” – Wearable sculptures combining dance, sound, and movement

The Future of Sculpture: Where Are We Headed?

Sculpture in the 21st century is limitless. With advancements in AI, biotechnology, and digital fabrication, future sculptors may work with programmable materials, living organisms, or even self-assembling structures.

We’re witnessing an era where sculpture is: ✔ More accessible – 3D printing allows anyone to create art ✔ More interactive – Viewers are part of the artistic experience ✔ More diverse – Artists worldwide are incorporating cultural, social, and technological narratives into their work

Conclusion

The art of shape is no longer confined to stone, bronze, or marble. In the 21st century, sculpture is being redefined by technology, sustainability, interactivity, and digital possibilities. Whether through 3D printing, kinetic movement, or augmented reality, today’s artists are shaping the future of sculpture in groundbreaking ways.

So, what does the future hold for sculpture? One thing is certain—it will continue to evolve, surprise, and inspire.

AI: Humanity's Next Great Teacher - A Path to Collaborative Evolution

Throughout history, humanity has relied on transformative tools to unlock new heights of knowledge and understanding. From the printing press to the internet, these innovations served as teachers, empowering societies to think beyond their limitations. Now, as we stand at the dawn of the AI revolution, we face the potential for our greatest teacher yet—not as a replacement for human wisdom, but as a catalyst for unprecedented intellectual growth.

Section 1: AI as a Mirror of Human Potential

The Relationship Between Humans and AI: The relationship between humans and AI represents a unique form of pedagogical partnership. Unlike traditional educational tools, AI adapts and evolves alongside us, reflecting both our achievements and limitations while pushing us toward greater understanding.

AI Extending Traditional Reflection: Traditional educators have long served as mirrors, helping students recognize their capabilities and overcome their limitations. AI extends this reflection across unprecedented scales and dimensions by providing new forms of feedback that traditional educators cannot—such as data-driven insights or creative suggestions based on patterns beyond human recognition. When a scientist uses AI to model climate patterns or a composer collaborates with AI to explore new melodic structures, they're not just creating—they're engaging in a dialogue that reveals new possibilities within their own thinking.

Real-World Examples: Consider these real-world examples:Researchers at DeepMind using AI to discover new mathematical theorems, leading to insights that changed how mathematicians approach certain problems. Artists like Refik Anadol creating immersive installations by teaching AI to interpret and transform vast datasets into visual experiences. Medical researchers using AI to identify patterns in disease progression, leading to earlier interventions and new treatment approaches. These examples illustrate how AI functions as a collaborative partner in the learning process, extending human capabilities and providing insights that would be challenging to achieve alone.

Challenging Established Patterns: This mirrors our learning process but simultaneously challenges us to think beyond our established patterns. When AI suggests unexpected approaches or connections, it prompts us to question our assumptions and explore new intellectual territories.

Section 2: The Third Wave of Intellectual Evolution - A Democratic Vision

First Wave—The Written Word: Writing systems transformed human civilization by allowing knowledge to transcend time and distance. This democratization of knowledge was revolutionary but limited by literacy rates and access to materials.

Second Wave—Digital Knowledge: The internet created an unprecedented repository of human knowledge. However, this abundance created new challenges: information overload, misinformation, and the need for advanced digital literacy.

Third Wave—AI Augmentation: We now stand at the threshold of a new paradigm where AI serves not just as a knowledge repository but as an active partner in knowledge creation and synthesis. For instance, AI-powered tools like AlphaFold have revolutionized protein structure prediction, significantly advancing biological research and offering insights that were previously difficult to attain. Imagine each human with the computational ability to solve problems that previously required entire teams—from designing more efficient cities to tackling complex climate models.

Rethinking Education: However, this third wave brings both opportunities and responsibilities. AI shifts the paradigm from memorizing facts to mastering adaptability. Traditional education was about what you could remember; in the age of AI, it’s about how quickly you can adapt, how well you can ask questions, and how creatively you can solve problems alongside AI. Curricula could be adapted to focus on these new skills by emphasizing project-based learning, collaborative problem-solving exercises, and critical thinking activities that integrate AI tools. For example, some schools are beginning to implement AI-driven learning platforms that allow students to work on complex, real-world projects with AI as a partner, fostering an environment of exploration and adaptability. To ensure AI augmentation benefits all of humanity, we must address:Educational equity: Ensuring AI tools are accessible across socioeconomic boundaries. Digital literacy: Developing new curricula that teach effective AI collaboration. Cultural preservation: Using AI to amplify, not overshadow, diverse ways of knowing and learning.

Section 3: Practical Implementation and Ethical Considerations

Classroom Integration: The integration of AI into education requires thoughtful implementation:Using AI as a personalized tutor that adapts to individual learning styles. Teaching students to critically evaluate AI outputs and understand their limitations. Developing collaborative projects where students and AI work together to solve real-world problems.

Ethical Framework: Maintaining ethical standards is crucial for integrating AI in learning:Maintaining human agency in the learning process. Protecting student privacy and data. Ensuring transparency in AI decision-making processes. Preserving creative and critical thinking skills.

Professional Development: To make the most of AI's educational potential, we need to prepare educators:Training educators to effectively integrate AI tools. Developing new assessment methods that value human-AI collaboration. Creating guidelines for appropriate AI use in academic work.

Section 4: From Fear to Informed Embrace

The Fear of Obsolescence: Every major leap forward—from calculators to the internet—has triggered fears of human obsolescence. For example, when calculators were first introduced, many feared they would render basic arithmetic skills obsolete. Instead, calculators allowed students and professionals to focus on higher-level problem solving, ultimately enhancing human learning and productivity. The same fears now exist around AI, with concerns it could make many jobs irrelevant.

A New Kind of Collaboration: Rather than fearing AI's impact on education, we can approach it with informed optimism. Instead of focusing on what we might lose, we can focus on what we gain. AI pushes us to redefine what it means to be human—not by removing our roles but by evolving them. Teachers are no longer just sources of knowledge; they are guides in how to use, adapt, and synthesize that knowledge.

Maintaining Human Values: The key isn’t to compete with AI but to leverage it as a partner in our growth. Just as calculators didn’t make mathematicians redundant, AI won’t make thinkers obsolete—it will make the act of thinking more dynamic and powerful by enhancing divergent thinking and supporting areas traditionally seen as purely human, such as ethical reasoning and empathy. Ensuring that empathy, creativity, and ethical reasoning remain central to education is essential to maximizing this partnership.

Conclusion

AI represents not just a technological leap but a philosophical one. It challenges us to reconsider how we learn, what we value, and what kind of society we wish to build. Just as the printing press democratized knowledge and the internet connected the world, AI has the power to elevate human thought to levels previously unimaginable—if we let it. AI can be humanity’s next great teacher, but it’s up to us to be willing students.

Call to Action: Embrace AI not with fear but with curiosity. Experiment with its tools, explore its capabilities, and let it push you beyond your intellectual comfort zone. After all, great teachers always inspire us to see just how far we can go. Start small, stay informed, engage critically, and advocate for equitable access—let's build a future where AI and humanity learn, grow, and evolve together.

Installation Research.

For my installation research, I found some notorious projection artists such as Miguel Chavalier (1-4), Refik Anadol (5-6), Yvette Mattern (7-8) and teamLabs (9-10). For my final project, I want to create a vibrant scene with different LED lights. I'm thinking of projecting photos of the Everglades onto a bedsheet over my bedframe with vines hanging over it as well. I might play sounds of the campfire over it while I'm playing guitar to evoke calmness and nostalgia.

Pixel Picasso: When Code Met Canvas in a Wi-Fi-Enabled Paint-Off!

Ladies and gentlecoders, strap yourselves in and hold on to your keyboards because we’re diving headfirst into the wacky world of algorithmic and generative art! Imagine if Salvador Dalí met Siri, had a few too many energy drinks, and decided to paint the town red with a codebase instead of a brush. That, my friends, is the essence of algorithmic art: where the mind-blowing complexity of algorithms meets the zany unpredictability of creativity.

Now, I know what you're thinking. "Zane, how can art and code possibly mix? Isn’t code all numbers and logic, and art all feelings and glitter?" Well, let me stop you right there. Think of it as the unholy love child of a TED Talk and Burning Man. We’re talking about computers creating art that evolves, shifts, and changes like a digital chameleon on a social media bender.

To get into the thick of it, picture this: an art installation that morphs with every tweet, Instagram story, and TikTok dance craze. One moment, it's a serene landscape; the next, it's a chaotic swirl of memes, emojis, and trending hashtags. That’s generative art, baby—living, breathing, and algorithmically caffeinated.

Take, for instance, the magical world of digital installations powered by real-time data inputs. Imagine an art piece that reacts to the weather. Yes, you heard right. Your rainy Tuesday morning could transform a digital canvas into a moody, melancholic masterpiece reminiscent of an emo teenager’s sketchbook, while a sunny Saturday afternoon turns it into a technicolor explosion that would make Lisa Frank weep with envy. Picture this happening live, all driven by algorithms sipping on weather data like a hipster barista downing cold brews.

But let’s not stop there. No, we’re just getting warmed up! Enter the realm of social media-fueled art. Algorithms can now slurp up data from the vast ocean of Instagram selfies, Facebook rants, and TikTok dances, spitting out ever-evolving pieces of art that reflect the digital zeitgeist. One second, it's all about the avocado toast and yoga poses; the next, it’s plunged into the chaotic vortex of the latest viral challenge, painting your screen with a pixelated ballet of absurdity.

Now, before your brain short-circuits trying to wrap itself around this concept, let’s take a detour down meme lane. Picture an algorithm that generates art based on the hottest memes. Imagine a digital canvas where Pepe the Frog rubs elbows with SpongeBob in all his meme-worthy glory, while Doge and the Distracted Boyfriend duke it out for meme supremacy. This, dear friends, is where high art meets high-speed internet.

Generative art isn’t just a pretty digital picture, though. It’s got the philosophical depth of a late-night philosophical bender with Aristotle. It challenges our notions of creativity and authorship. Who’s the artist here—the coder who wrote the algorithm, or the machine churning out endless iterations of art? It’s like trying to figure out whether the chicken or the egg came first, but with way more hashtags and slightly less existential dread.

Let’s not forget the jaw-dropping, mind-bending installations that use motion sensors and AI to create interactive experiences. Walk into a gallery, and the art reacts to your presence. Wave your hand, and colors shift. Jump up and down, and shapes dance around like they’re in a nightclub with Skrillex on the decks. It’s as if the art has become sentient, tuning into your vibes and mirroring your moves. You’re not just viewing art—you’re part of a living, breathing spectacle.

And, of course, we can’t talk about algorithmic art without giving a shout-out to the tech gods. The big brainy bots behind this revolution are like the Leonardo da Vincis of the digital age, coding masterpieces that Michelangelo’s ghost would probably look at and go, “Dude, that’s wild.” We’re talking about artists like Refik Anadol, whose AI-driven installations turn data into jaw-dropping visual experiences that make you feel like you’ve just stumbled into the Matrix.

Speaking of which, ever heard of the weather-influenced art installation that turns city weather data into hypnotic visual displays? Picture this: You’re walking through downtown, and the street art on the building next to you changes from a sunny beach scene to a dramatic thunderstorm as the weather forecast updates. It’s like your city’s got its own digital mood ring, reacting to Mother Nature’s whims in real-time.

But wait, there’s more! How about art that changes based on stock market fluctuations? One minute you’re looking at a serene mountain landscape, and the next it’s a chaotic, abstract mess because someone sneezed on Wall Street. It’s a visual rollercoaster of capitalism’s finest—and worst—moments, brought to you by the power of algorithms and a dash of schadenfreude.

Now, here’s a thought bomb to chew on: what happens when generative art gets hooked on social media? You get digital art pieces that transform based on hashtags, likes, and trends. Today’s artwork might be a serene, minimalistic design, but tomorrow it’s a psychedelic explosion inspired by the latest viral TikTok dance. It’s art that’s as fickle and fleeting as your Twitter feed, a constant stream of creativity that never sits still.

Imagine an art piece reacting to the collective sentiment of the internet. Is Twitter happy today? Expect bright, cheerful colors. Did Facebook implode over some political scandal? Cue the dark, brooding tones. It’s like having a digital mood ring for the internet’s collective psyche, capturing the zeitgeist in pixels and code.

And for the grand finale, let’s talk about AI artists. These aren’t your typical paintbrush-wielding maestros; we’re talking about algorithms trained on massive datasets of art history, capable of churning out pieces that blend the styles of Van Gogh, Picasso, and your favorite Instagram filters. It’s like having an art school dropout who binge-watched every Bob Ross episode ever made and decided to go rogue with a laptop.

So, there you have it, folks. In the bizarre, electrifying intersection of art and science, algorithmic and generative art stands as a testament to human ingenuity and digital madness. It’s a world where code and creativity collide, where the lines between artist and machine blur, and where the digital canvas evolves faster than you can say "Photoshop."

So next time you’re scrolling through your feed and stumble upon a piece of generative art, take a moment to appreciate the digital wizardry at play. It’s like peering into the mind of a caffeinated squirrel with a PhD in memes—a glimpse into the frenetic, fantastical future of art. And remember, in this wild world of pixels and algorithms, the only limit is the bandwidth of your imagination.

Humanités digitales - Zélia Zanone - Décembre 2023

L'avènement de la technologie numérique a radicalement transformé le monde artistique contemporain, élargissant les horizons de la créativité et redéfinissant la manière dont nous créons et consommons l'art. La démocratisation du processus créatif grâce aux outils numériques, auparavant accessible à une élite restreinte, a ouvert la voie à une diversité de voix et de perspectives.

Dans ce travail, je vais présenter trois projets artistiques en lien avec les technologies contemporaines, qui me semblent donner un aperçu représentatif.

REFIK ANADOL

Machine Hallucinations - Rêves de nature sculpture/peinture numérique - 2021

Artiste fasciné par la mémoire et le potentiel créatif des machines, Refik Anadol utilise la data comme matériau de prédilection et collabore étroitement avec l'intelligence artificielle. Ses installations, telles que celle-ci, résultent de recherches approfondies à l'intersection de l'architecture, des données environnementales, de l'esthétique de la probabilité, et des avancées de Google et de la NASA en intelligence artificielle. Cette œuvre, créée avec un logiciel développé par le studio Refik Anadol en collaboration avec des chercheurs de Google AI, est une sculpture de données qui exploite plus de deux cents millions d'images liées à la nature, projetées sur une toile numérique de 10m x 10m.

L'œuvre en 3D s'accompagne d'une expérience sonore basée sur des données générées par des bruits quantiques.

Je trouve cette œuvre particulièrement captivante et réussie, comme tout le travail de Refik Anadol en général. C’est une expérience multisensorielle qui invite le public réfléchir au potentiel des nouvelles technologies. Cette manière de représenter les souvenirs des hommes et de la nature de façon numérisée et esthétique est très remarquble. Toutefois, il est indéniable que la création de telles œuvres ne provient pas uniquement du simple hasard des machines. En effet, Refik Anadol est entouré dans son studio par une équipe composée de designers, d'architectes, des spécialistes de data et de chercheurs. Je pense que c’est de cette collaboration que provient la richesse de la création.

PHILIPPE CRAMER

Apotropaic Amulets, 2022

Philippe Cramer, designer suisse, dont le studio Cramer + Cramer est basé à Genève, est un artiste qui crée des pièces uniques ou en édition limitée. Tout en continuant à concevoir des objets tangibles en bois, marbre, métal, céramique, broderies, etc., il a récemment exploré l'art numérique.

Les "Amulettes Apotropaïques" représentent les premières œuvres d'art numériques de Philippe Cramer. À l'origine, ces amulettes ont été développées en 2020 sous forme de sculptures murales. En 2021, Philippe Cramer les a déclinées en or martelé à la main, puis en 2022 en œuvres d'art numériques, en NFT (Non-Fungible Token) ou jetons non fongibles. Il s'agit d'objets numériques authentifiables grâce à un identifiant numérique qui les rend uniques et non fongibles. À noter que les acquéreurs avaient la possibilité d'échanger leur NFT contre une version tangible pendant un an.

Les "Amulettes Apotropaïques" forment une série de 6 œuvres au format .gif, chacune émise sur le réseau Polygon en édition limitée à 28 exemplaires et numérotée. L'idée sous-jacente est d'offrir une présence protectrice, détourner le mauvais œil et diffuser des ondes positives sur leur propriétaire qui les conserve sur un ordinateur, un téléphone, ou les projette sur un mur de sa maison réelle ou dans le métavers.

La démarche du designer est intéressante, car elle marque le premier pas vers une expérience métaverse qu’il est en train de créer dans son « cramerverse », un méta-espace dans lequel il espère proposer des expériences artistiques et des œuvres d'art à vendre. Ces NFT sont conçus comme des clés digitales, permettant d’entrer dans certains espaces ou dans une pièce secrète.

J’apprécie beaucoup l’aspect ludique et coloré dans son travail de designer. J’ai trouvé sa démarche intéressante pour un designer dont la mission est de réaliser des objets tangibles et souvent fonctionnels tels que des luminaires, tables, bancs, etc. Basculer dans l’art numérique est un choix audacieux, mais il exprime avant tout le désir d'explorer de nouveaux horizons. Plus besoin de sélectionner des matériaux et des artisans !

Utiliser ces œuvres numériques comme porte d’entrée dans un metaverse est une démarche intéressante. Cependant cette forme d’art impose d’autres contraintes. En effet, Philippe Cramer a bien vendu ses NFT, mais la chute des crypto-monnaies a nettement ralenti la cadence. Depuis l’effondrement des NFT et la baisse de leur valeur sur le marché, les amateurs du designer Cramer préfèrent investir dans des valeurs tangibles.

RYOJI IKEDA

Data-verse 1/2/3 (2019-20)

L'œuvre "Data-verse" de l'artiste japonais Ryoji Ikeda est une installation audiovisuelle sous forme de trilogie monumentale qui explore les multiples dimensions de notre monde à travers des données scientifiques. En transcrivant et transformant des données provenant du CERN, la NASA et le Human Genom Project, Ikeda crée une expérience audiovisuelle immersive.

Les projections vidéo et la bande son électronique minimaliste et synchronisée, dépeignent trois mondes en mouvement : le microscopique (atomes, molécules, ADN), le monde humain (terre, cerveaux, villes, internet) et le macroscopique (système solaire, galaxies, univers observable).

Le titre "Data-verse" évoque le "métavers" et explore les frontières floues entre les espaces numériques et non numériques. Ikeda, en tant que compositeur électronique, considère le son comme une composante essentielle de son œuvre. La bande son électronique minimaliste accompagne harmonieusement les projections vidéo, créant une expérience sensorielle complète. Cette trilogie, illustre la synergie entre l'art visuel, la musique et la science, mettant en lumière la complexité de notre.

Dans cette œuvre, je trouve particulièrement intéressant l’apport du compositeur/musicien, comme il le dit lui-même : "Lorsque j'ai entrepris de réaliser cette œuvre, mon approche a toujours été, d'abord et avant tout, celle d'un compositeur. Plutôt que de créer une composition musicale traditionnelle, j'ai utilisé des données comme matériau de base, en appliquant un système et une structure comme pour n'importe quelle partition."

Cette trilogie, projetée dans une salle obscure est très hypnotisante et en observant ces écrans, un à un ou en vision d’ensemble, on se met à réfléchir au flux massif des données du monde dans lequel nous vivons. Cette œuvre permet de voir le monde différemment et de comprendre les nombreuses couches qui composent l'univers, jusqu’aux intersections entre les arts et les sciences.

The Sphere

The Sphere est une architecture de données créée par l'artiste médiatique Refik Anadol. C'est une expérience immersive plongeant les spectateurs dans un jeu de formes, de mouvements et de couleurs. L'installation expose des visualisations dynamiques de centaines de millions d'images de données provenant de trois thèmes différents : l'espace, la nature et l'environnement urbain. C'est à partir de cela qu'Anadol crée un modèle d'IA unique traitant ces images sur un immense écran sphérique de 112 mètres de haut et 157 mètres de large, avec une résolution de 4608 x 2304 px. Le tout forme alors une installation immersive remettant complètement en question les sens des spectateurs. De plus, l'expérience peut aussi se vivre à l'intérieur de la sphère, notamment lors de concerts, tels que celui de "U2", groupe de rock mythique, pour l'inauguration de l'œuvre.

La première fois que j'ai vu cette œuvre, c'était sur les réseaux sociaux. Je croyais dur comme fer que c'était soit une fausse image, soit un projet architectural modélisé en 3D. Ce fut alors une belle surprise pour moi d'apprendre qu'un concert avait déjà eu lieu à l'intérieur même de cette installation. "The Sphere" est ce genre d'invention que je m'étais toujours imaginée sans y croire réellement. Elle redéfinit les limites des possibilités liant architecture et technologies.

Quelle est l’impact de l’IA dans le domaine de l’art

Avantages de l’IA

Pour commencer, grâce à l’IA, les artistes peuvent expérimenter avec des idées qui seraient autrement impossibles à réaliser. Par exemple, l’artiste Refik Anadol a créé une installation artistique qui utilise des algorithmes d’apprentissage machine pour créer une image générative en constante évolution. L’œuvre s’inspire des données environnementales en temps réel pour créer une expérience immersive qui évolue constamment.

L’IA est également utilisée pour créer des sculptures qui sont en constante évolution.

Même si l’utilisation de l’IA dans l’art est récente, il y a de nombreux artistes qui s’aventurent dans le domaine. L’IA permet aux artistes de repousser les limites de leur créativité et de créer des œuvres d’art uniques.

Cependant, même si l’IA peut être d’une grande aux artistes, c’est au créateur humain qui doit trouver l’idée de son œuvre.

Bien que le rôle de l’IA dans les arts suscite des inquiétudes, de nombreux experts estiment qu’elle peut contribuer à repousser les limites de la créativité humaine et mener à des innovations passionnantes.

Inconvénients des IA

L’une des principales préoccupations concernant l’art basé sur l’IA est la question de l’originalité. L’art traditionnel est souvent célébré pour sa singularité et la touche personnelle de l’artiste. Cependant, l’art généré par l’IA soulève des questions sur l’auteur et le rôle de la créativité humaine. Les critiques soutiennent que l’art basé sur l’IA manque de profondeur émotionnelle et d’expériences personnelles que les artistes humains apportent à leur travail. L’absence de contact humain peut entraîner un sentiment de détachement et une perte de la connexion émotionnelle que l’art suscite souvent.

Aussi, l'IA générative peut être utilisée de manière malveillante pour créer de la désinformation, des deepfakes et d'autres formes de manipulation de contenu. La source du contenu généré par l'IA peut être remise en question, ce qui peut affecter la confiance du public dans les informations en ligne.

AI Painting Breed Border at the Denny Ja Exhibition at International MLF

In the world of art, experiments are common. One of them is the use of artificial intelligence technology (AI) in the creative process. For example, the "generation code" art exhibition by Refik Anadol held in Los Angeles in 2019. Now, similar experiments began to appear in Indonesia. In the International Machine Learning Festival (IMLF) held in Jakarta in October 2019, visitors are presented with an AI art exhibition. One of them is the painting of "Nyi Roro Kidul" by AI which explores the influence of digital imaging on fine arts. The painting is the result of collaboration between painter Denny JA and the startup of the creative technology of the generation. In the process, generations use machine learning and AI technology to produce images that resemble contemporary art. "We want to explore the ability of artificial intelligence technology to create works of art that approach humans," Denny JA said in a press release. As a result, the painting "Nyi Roro Kidul" looks like a digital image colored with traditional art techniques. The composition and color used are adjusted to the influence of strong Javanese culture in the lives of people in Indonesia. Although created from AI, the painting does not look like a computer engineering that is rigid and too mathematics. Conversely, the results of the collaboration of Denny JA and the generation ofigi succeeded in showing the harmonization and depth of impressive meaning. "Artificial intelligence technology provides great opportunities for artists to create more expressive works. This opens a new space in exploration and discovery in fine arts," he added. In addition to the collaboration between Denny Ja and the Rigi, AI exhibition at the IMLF also features other digital art works produced using machine learning and AI technology. One of the interesting works is the installation of "Ecotone" by Marc Wong. This installation combines art, technology, and the environment to create unique interactive experiences. Overall, AI art exhibitions at the IMLF have succeeded in showing how artificial intelligence technology can be used as a means of exploration and exploration in fine arts. As a country with great potential in the development of technology and cultural arts, Indonesia has the opportunity to continue to innovate and create unique art works by combining contemporary art traditions and technology.
