When Grayson Earle hacked Grand Theft Auto V in his MAXvirtual web series Absurd Intelligence that was just a glimpse of how artists can experiment with computer code, undress an algorithm and entertain us! Join Earle along with McArthur grant winner Annie Dorsen and Princeton Professor Tom Griffiths as they break down how artists and scientists are revealing the opportunities and obstacles that human intelligence and machine learning provide for us all in our opening conversation, MAXforum: It's The Limitation That Sets Us Free. Moderated by Kay Matschullat.
Join us in February, March and April to discover how intelligence flourishes in systems, animals, and humans. This line-up will feature McArthur Grant-winning artist, a world-renowned curator, and some of the most brilliant minds in the tech and science world.
MAXforum is produced by Media Art Xploration and presented in partnership with 1014.
Biographies
Annie Dorsen is a theater director working at the intersection of algorithmic art and live performance. Her most recent project, Infinite Sun, is an algorithmic sound installation commissioned by the Sharjah Biennial 14 (2019). Previous performance projects include The Great Outdoors (2017), Yesterday Tomorrow (2015), A Piece of Work (2013), Spokaoke (2012), and Hello Hi There (2010). These pieces have been presented at numerous theatres and festivals world-wide, including at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (New York), Hebbel am Ufer (Berlin), the steirischer herbst festival (Graz), the Holland Festival (Amsterdam), and the Festival d’Automne (Paris).
Grayson Earle is a new media artist and educator. He has worked as a Visiting Professor at Oberlin College and the New York City College of Technology. He is the creator of Bail Bloc and a member of The Illuminator art collective. Recent displays of his work include Kate Vass Galerie (Switzerland) and the Brooklyn Museum (USA). He has presented his work and research at The Whitney Museum of Art, MoMA PS1, Radical Networks, the Magnum Foundation, and Open Engagement. He is currently based in Brooklyn, NY
Tom Griffiths is the Henry R. Luce Professor of Information Technology, Consciousness and Culture in the Departments of Psychology and Computer Science at Princeton University. His research explores connections between human and machine learning, using ideas from statistics and artificial intelligence to understand how people solve the challenging computational problems they encounter in everyday life. He has received awards for his research from organizations ranging from the American Psychological Association to the National Academy of Sciences, and is a co-author of the book Algorithms To Live By, introducing ideas from computer science and cognitive science to a general audience.
Kay Matschullat (Moderator) is an accomplished performing and media arts director, producer, educator, and founder whose work is dedicated to deconstructing barriers and exploring inventive collaborations. In 2013, Matschullat set her sights on driving innovation in performing arts through the intersection of technology and the arts by founding Scriptopia, the first software application for collaborative, online script development. After successfully launching Scriptopia, Matschullat secured funding for Media Art Xploration (MAX), a non-profit dedicated to the cultivation and presentation of performing and media arts with the goal of increasing artistic exploration and humanistic inquiry into the light-speed advances in science and technology. She most enjoys creating space for artists and scientists to change the world and to that end, she curated MAX 2019: A Space Festival.
