The second day of Semi-Permanent was highly inspirational and I found that I was able to relate and draw something from pretty much every speaker, regardless of their discipline and focus.
Some relevant notes
Kyle Mcdonald – Artist working with code
Kyle talked about his work using code to create art and the relationship between man and machine – the good and the bad.
- Computers imitating human – just distilling creativity?
- Machine learning allows a different perspective – like talking to an alien
- Algorithms have a bias, they learn from human mistakes
Shantelle Martin – Quite relevant so I will dedicate a seperate post for her.
Eric Brandt – Graphic designer and professor
- Eric talked about working within limitations and how that can be beneficial. He spoke about mastering limitations and how that is a great test of an artist.
VCD 453 - Jason Fastier
