An exchange between galerie PLUTO and the TRA Individuals, Institutions and Societies at the Science Festival resulted in a unique dialogue between PLUTO resident artist Gonzalo Reyes Araos and our University’s researchers, titled “The Poetics of Machine Learning.” The research-based creative exchange will culminate in a public lecture with a presentation by Gonzalo Reyes Araos and five researchersof the University of Bonn. Works by Reyes Araos and corresponding research questions will be presented in the discussion.
Join us for an exciting transdisciplinary discussion between art and science on questions such as:
How can artists react to AI?
Does the fusion of art and artificial intelligence mean the end of human-made art and autonomous artists?
Can poetry created by a machine without consciousness or intention still induce emotions?
Are words capable of generating reality?
What role does imagination play?
Panel: Gonzalo Reyes Araos, Prof. Dr. Jens Schröter, Prof. Dr. Anke Grutschus, Iris Ferrazzo, Dr. Merlin Monzel, Prof. Dr. Birgit Mersmann
Moderation: Prof. Jane Brucker & Prof. Dr. Jeremy Wasser
