Art-ificial Intelligence

42m · ArtyParti · 04 Dec 17:04

Today, three creatives who use artificial intelligence as part of their practice in different ways; Odette Johnson, Tyrone Santiago, and Phil Christopher. We discussed some of the challenges affecting artists as A.I. technologies improve - including copyright, ownership, and the potential loss of income that artists might face if numbers of commissions suffer.

As a Digital Marketing Specialist, Phil leads an A.I. art competition named 'A.I.A.V.A.' - he's forged a supportive online community around this initiative, inviting digital artists to respond to regular prompts. Click here to see more.

Odette Johnson, primarily a sound and music artist who utilises found sound and electronic music in her practice, has been experimenting recently with A.I. software as an iterative part of her process when it comes to visual art, including the Bird Jammin' piece as part of the current #VinylOutcry exhibition at Hills Arts Centre.

And Tyron Santiago, who is currently studying his final year of BA Animation and Games Art at the University of Sunderland, is working on a critical dissertation which investigates the negative impacts that A.I. might post to artists and to the arts world.

Beautiful Chaos - Happy New Year 2023

Reflect back on 2022, and look ahead to 2023, with seven members of our artistic & creative community:

Caligo - Visual Artist
- "The feeling of collaborating with other artists, and then seeing my work on a gallery wall... An experience that I'm hoping to have more in the future.... I found my mind churning new ideas again.... I feel like my inspiration and creative drive have been re-ignited."

Ken Devine - Artist / Owner of Frederick Street Gallery
- "I want to evolve, I need to evolve as an artist... So for 2023, I'll continue my ongoing quest to agitate the artistic waters of stagnation as I chase that elusive, magical dancing light, colour, and painterliness that this artist in particular craves."

Glenda Young - Best-Selling Author
- "I'm a best-selling author, and I've waited all of my life to say that... My hopes and dreams for 2023 will be to calm down a little it, to have a quieter year. I've been very busy, which is fantastic, and I continue to write, but I just want to take a breather and enjoy the success a little."

Kathryn Barnett - Director of Regeneration North East / Producer / Artist
- "So what has 2022 taught us? Sadly, discrimination is still a major problem - not just for disabled people, but for all minority groups... We don't get up in the morning to win prizes, it's because we love what we do as artists, and we believe in its outcomes."

Jo Howell - Photographic Artist
- "Our world is seemingly on fire... Luckily we weren't affected too badly by the pandemic personally, apart from career wise. I hope 2023 means that we can look forward to some really really awesome stuff. Not only just for me, but for everybody."

Chantal Herbert - Founder of Sister Shack CIC / Founder of Sister Sounds / DJ Awkward Black Woman
- "2022 has just been beautiful chaos with all the things I have done so far, but I'm really proud of [our queer safe-space night] Bend & Shake. It seems to be a space that everyone has needed... And next year, 2023, I plan to make it even bigger and better."

Lyn Killeen - Contemporary Fine Artist / Participatory Arts Facilitator
- "I really am focusing on arts for health, and planning on starting a new programme which is therapeutic, and introducing some wellbeing techniques using instruments and workshops in nature, such as in forests on the beach, and I'm really excited about that."
