Let's
digress (отклонимся) a bit from the topic of universities. So, our yesterday's audio was prepared by AI - and here's where we turn to technologies and, in particular, digital art.
Useful words: generative art - генеративное искусство (создается, используя код)
computer plotter - графопостроитель
random - случайный
sets of values - набор значений
There’s an exhibition taking place at one of the world’s top galleries Pace, located in NY. It represents works of a
generative artist Tyler Hobbs - 12 paintings made using generative code and a
computer plotter.
Although the machine moves basing on the instructions it’s been given by the code, there’s a degree of
randomness in the whole process. When he runs the program, it
randomly picks from the given
sets of values within each characteristic and produces a picture.
Do you think these works can be considered art? Do you agree that machines can create art? Let us know in comments.
