Rover was screened as part of Vision Machines at the CMU STUDIO for Creative Inquiry.
Continue reading Vision Machines at CMU 2022My paper Three Stage Drawing Transfer has been published by Proceedings of the ACM on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques. I presented this at SIGGRAPH 2022 in Vancouver BC as part of the Art Papers program. It explores creative AI, human imagination, and embodied interaction through an interactive drawing performance.

My project Three Stage Drawing Transfer was selected for the SIGGRAPH 2022 Art Gallery program in Vancouver, BC. August 8-11th, 2022.
I did an interview about the project for the ACM SIGGRAPH Blog https://blog.siggraph.org/2022/07/exploring-collaborative-drawing-and-creative-ai.html/.
I also gave a LABS session, and was on two panels:
I presented Three Stage Drawing Transfer as part of the Demos program at ISEA 2022 in Barcelona, Spain. It was wonderful interacting with the attendees: we had great conversations about creative AI, child art, and human-robot interaction.

We were proud to present our Embodied Code project (embodiedcode.net) as part of the 2022 STEM for All Video Showecase. Access, Inclusion, Equity, May 10-17.

Together with Ash Smith, Patrick Coleman, and Stephanie Sherman, I will be conducting a day long workshop on AI co-writing with GPT-3, culminating in a live internet radio play for ISEA 2022.

For the FLYOVER Summit at UNL (Ash Smith and Stephanie Sherman), we produced a speculative machine narrative of the event. We had 11 humans, 1 neural net, and billions of anonymous textual tokens to produce a machine narrative to accompany the talks throughout the day. An AI writer’s room.
The Rural AI took over the Carson Center feed for 9 hours on 10/21. Find our micro-narratives and speculative vignettes between:
