How AI Lost Its Body: Philip Schmidt

Take a tour of the imagination of the engineer in this lecture-performance with choreography by Sarah Dahnke.

Philipp Schmitt, a MAXmachina artist and former Berggruen Institute fellow embedded in Yann LeCun’s lab at NYU, uncovers surprising elements in the making of machine learning. In a world where most people’s picture of what artificial intelligence is ranges from The Terminator to face recognition, How AI Lost Its Body delves into the imagination of the engineer, the aesthetics of artificial intelligence and gives you access to new ways of picturing AI—that will remain with you long after the curtain bow.

Secret Garden: Stephanie Dinkins

Travel across space and time and immerse yourself in this fitting reminder that sharing and receiving stories is in fact an act of resistance.

Generations of black women who have survived slave boats, grown up on 1920s Black-owned farms, lived through 9/11, and more are all waiting for you in Stephanie Dinkins’ AI-powered garden. After a critically acclaimed run at the Sundance Festival, this immersive work, is returning to NYC in a new VR installation that you can’t miss out on.

Inference Engine: Grayson Earle

Step into the GANthropocene—a new kind of video game.

Your spacecraft has been knocked out of orbit and into the next era—the GANthropocene. Now you’re lost in a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) and with only the controls you have in front of you, you must navigate your way back to your destination before time runs out. Machine learning is on your side.

Biographies

Philipp Schmitt is an artist, designer, and researcher based in Brooklyn, NY. His practice engages with the philosophical, poetic, and political dimensions of computation. His current work addresses opacity and imagination in artificial intelligence research. Philipp’s work is in the collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the MoMA Library; and has been exhibited in the US, Europe, and Asia.

Stephanie Dinkins is a transmedia artist who creates platforms for dialog about race, gender, aging, and our future histories. Dinkins’ art practice employs emerging technologies, documentary practices, and social collaboration toward equity and community sovereignty. She is particularly driven to work with communities of color to co-create more equitable, values grounded social and technological ecosystems.

Grayson Earle is a new media artist and educator. He has worked as a professor at Oberlin College, the New School, and the City University of New York. He is the co-creator of Bail Bloc and a member of The Illuminator art collective. His work uses the context of art to materialize ideas and forms surrounding the role that digital technologies and networks can play in protest and political agency. He exhibits inside and outside of traditional art spaces, working with guerrilla video projection, cryptocurrency, machine learning, simulation, sculpture, and the internet.
