Description

Cybernetic Creativity and the Future of Art explores the integration of art, science, engineering, technology, and artificial and in-vitro intelligence in the creation of art. The discussion will delve into the concept of cybernetic creativity, whereby artists can harness the power of emergent technologies to create new forms of expression and autonomous artistic entities that may have the potential to be creative. The discussions will focus on these new technologies’ artistic, cultural, ethical, and philosophical implications.

Perth-based artist Guy Ben-Ary will be conversing with Italian artist, curator, and director Lanfranco Aceti and Portuguese artist and curator Marta de Menezes to discuss cybernetic creativity and the future of art in the context of their own artistic and curatorial practices. Ben-Ary, Aceti, and de Menezes will share their perspectives and insights on the intersection of science, technology and art and discuss the opportunities and challenges that arise from these convergences.
