The future of art

Are algorithms the next collaborators?

Technology is changing the way we make, experience and share our ideas. But how do artists use it to shape their craft and the way their audiences experience it?

A chance encounter led computational art pioneer Ernest Edmonds to discover the power and potential of algorithms. Ever since, he has been working to see what they might uncover about the nature of art. In this episode, Edmonds and artist Refik Anadol discuss the underlying mathematical structures of art and the growing urge to understand what goes on behind the scenes. From inventing new technologies that make art possible to the growing drive to increase computational literacy (pixels, virtual space, the metaverse and more), how will these things affect humanity’s perception and cognition of the world? 

ART + TECHNOLOGY explores how creatives are bringing the disparate fields of ART + TECHNOLOGY together to reveal surprising works that belong to a whole new genre. See more, here.
