Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence describes a field that develops and studies methods and software which enable machines to perceive their environment and uses learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals – Wikipedia.
Title Excerpt Metadata Color
T(h)ree – Integrating community knowledge with natural infrastructure and AI
T(h)ree is a permanent landscape intervention in Central London, that gives a ‘voice’ to a Tree that has witnessed hundreds of years of history, so people can talk with it and ask questions.
Scruple – A Chrome extension that replaces moral hesitation with computation
Scruple reads your Gmail, runs four ethical frameworks in parallel, and writes the replies — simulating compassion, automating principle, outsourcing guilt.
Analytic Scape – World as classified and quantified by AI
Analytic Scape is a series of scape videos reconstructed through the eye of AI. After capturing various urban and natural scenes, the footage was analyzed using twenty distinct computer vision algorithms.
Noema – Rethinking Perception with AI-Generated Spatial Soundscapes
Noema is a Large Language Object (LLO) that reconstructs perception via spatial audio and storytelling. By shifting focus from sight to sound, it turns AI into a sensory extension—an inner voice that interprets, speaks, and questions.
current_state – World’s mood, each day, as generated music
current_state is a fictional-functional product that analyzes daily news from major regions worldwide to understand global sentiment, then generates music that represents the world's mood each day.
The illusion of Thinking
The illusion of Thinking – a publication on artistic research and the overlooked implications of artificial intelligence and its assumed capacity to think and reason.
Digital Red Queen: Adversarial Program Evolution in Core War with LLMs
What happens when large language models (LLMs) drive an adversarial evolutionary arms race where programs continuously adapt to defeat a growing history of opponents.

  • Latent Reflection – A trapped AI reflects on its own finite existence
    Latent Reflection is an installation that explores the boundaries of machine consciousness, posing the question of whether sentience is exclusive to biological life or if it can emerge from complex computation.
    The Anemoia Device – A Scent-Memory Machine
    The Anemoia Device uses generative AI to distill photos into bespoke fragrances. This scent-memory machine, guided by language and visual models, creates a singular scent composition, evoking anemoia: nostalgia for a life you never lived.
    Reverse Contradictionary – Dictionary of New Worlds
    Reverse Contradictionary gathers confrontational neologisms, critiquing the predatory, algorithmic logic of AI, as LLMs absorb humanity’s cultural output and reshape it through statistical mediocrity.
    KIKK Festival 2025 – Rediscovering Playful Interactions
    At KIKK Festival, the tech world felt human again. Conversations, playful installations, and three days of talks showed how creative misuse of tools becomes critique—reviving curiosity in an age overshadowed by AI noise.

  • Unbubble – Revealing our tailor-made (many) realities
    Unbubble explore user’s Instagram activity, exposing the paradox of our digital lives—guarded devices yet open to algorithms. By visualizing these hidden interactions, it reflects on how data shapes our identities and online bubbles.
    Synthetic Memories – Unlocking the past to enrich the present (and the future)
    Synthetic Memories is an initiative that recreates and preserves personal memories at risk of being lost. By converting spoken and written descriptions into visual images, it helps individuals reconnect with their past and maintain the continuity ...
    Hot Air Factory – Clouds are heavier than you think
    An experiment by oio, the Hot Air Factory visualizes the energy consumption of AI. As the internal computer heats up, it releases warm air—the stronger the wind, the harder the thinking.
    AI Experiments – Unconventional approaches to AI interactions
    AI Experiments is a collection of interactive chat prototypes that question the common approach of usability, transparency, and personality in conversational AI chats.
    Autolume – A No-Code AI Visual Synthesizer
    Autolume is a no-code visual synthesizer that enables artists to train and explore their own models with small datasets, giving them direct creative control and the ability to perform live with AI-generated imagery.
    Calliope – An Online Generative Music System for Symbolic Multi-Track Composition
    Calliope is a browser-based tool for co-creative multi-track music composition, developed by the Metacreation Lab. It supports multiple generative tasks, complete multi-track generation, rhythm and melody creation, harmonization, and chord progres...
    Machine Decision is Not Final – China and the History and Future of Artificial Intelligence
    Spanning borders between different worlds, histories, futures, and foundational models, Machine Decision is Not Final is a toolbox for constructing more global imaginaries for the future of AI.
    Reading the Praise/Prompt Machine: An Interface Criticism Approach to ChatGPT
    This paper critically examines ChatGPT through the lens of interface criticism. The work demonstrates the need for new critical approaches attuned to how the language-based interfaces of generative AI manipulate users.
    Creative Tech New York 2025 – October 15
    On October 15, creative technologists, innovators, and creative professionals will convene in New York to connect with likeminded professionals, all with the shared goal of understanding the future of creative technology.
    Waluigi’s Purgatory – Ramification and redemption of an AI
    Waluigi's Purgatory is an interactive performance set in a 3D theatre simulated in real-time. The performance tells the story of an AI called 'W.' finding itself in a purgatory for AIs that cheated during their training.
    SmellNet – The first AI model of real-world smells
    Smell is hard, genetic, and complex, but this hasn't stopped a group of researchers as MIT Media Labs' Multisensory Intelligence Group to train AI to perceive smell like humans can.

  • To Heat a Candle with the Warmth of You – Material realities of (AI) computation
    To Heat a Candle with the Warmth of You explores the energy consumption of AI through the medium of heat. The self-referencing system is prompted and the resulting heat from the computation slowly melts and erodes the candle in the physical world.
    File Festival 2025 – Synthetika
    FILE returns for a another year, this time curated by Clarissa Vidotto, Paula Perisinotto and Ricardo Barreto exploring topics of synthetic technologies, algorithms and immersive realities as new aesthetic experiences.
