Lecture
Systems for Surprise, Discovery and Learning 1
Over several lectures we will look at exemplar projects of contemporary generative art, distinguished by the artists’ abilities to transcend the conceptual, productive and aesthetic limits of algorithmic thinking and code-based creativity. By leveraging generativity into the original structures, they command inspiring, emotionally and intellectually rich experiences with unique aesthetic and ethical values. You will be able to recognize and evaluate them as cognitive tools for comparison, abstraction, categorization, analogising and meaning making. This will empower you to synergize your inspiration, knowledge, skills, playfulness and curiosity into your own generative projects.
