Expanded Voices: Exploring Voice Identity and Latent Spaces with AI

We will explore vocal timbre transfer with artificial intelligence through the lens of the exhibition Expanded Voices (featured at Sónar+D and Ars Electronica 2025). This project is a unique collaboration between artist Maria Arnal and researchers from the Creative Intelligence Lab at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC).

What to Expect:

Live Demo: A firsthand look at the exhibition's capabilities.

Accessible Discussion: An introduction to the core concepts of vocal timbre transfer.

Technical Deep Dive: An in-depth exploration of the most relevant engineering and AI aspects behind the project.

Open Dialogue: A closing conversation on the artistic, ethical, and creative implications of these technologies, as well as their potential applications in both art and science.

Speaker:

Tomas Andrade Weber — AI Researcher & Theoretical Physicist at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center.
