Adjusting context

I had a meeting with Tanya about the direction of my project as I was feeling a bit confused and wanted some clear direction to think about while I was away for Semi-Permanent leading into supercrit.

Some notes on the feedback –

  • Project could be ‘future casting’ – looking into the positive/negative possibilities of collaboration with AI
  • Physical algorithms?
  • Mobias/Wayne Barlo – artists
  • Computers are like ‘magic’ to the average man who doesn’t completely understand the inner workings
  • Ethics?
  • Context – doesn’t need to be based on story – What planets are out there?
  • Really long canvas going around, showing different iterations (could connect together like exquisite corpse?) – Setup in the pit

The main point I got from Tanya was affirming that the project did not necessarily need to be based around an exisiting story, just as long as there was some context to ground it. For example I could imagine what sort of planets are out in the vast depths of space – what would AI come up with for this unexplored territory? How could that be applied within concept design/art.
