• AI: Teaching a New Dog Old Tricks by Adam Cole

Adam is an American new media artist working at the intersection of art and technology. He is currently based in the UK completing his master's at the Creative Computing Institute, University of the Arts London. His work spans both the digital and physical and focuses on the various ways identity and intimacy are mediated through technology.

In this talk, Adam discusses how he navigated his ambivalent feelings about AI-generated imagery by looking to former avant-garde art movements to inform his current practice. He will outline his current process using diffusion models for generative video, and share some works reflecting on the nature of images and the future of AI.
