Art is essential to human intelligence and … AI
“A project to develop computationally-generated calligraphy and graffiti which looks convincingly human has been awarded a 2021 Artists + Machine Intelligence Research Award from Google”
This event is part of the 2022 Berlin Science Week and organized by ETH Zürich With: Chris Luebekeman, Liat Grayver, Alexander Ilich, Adina Popescu
Graffitizer 2 is an installation featuring a pen plotter and a projector. A computer program generates forms that are incrementally traced with ink by the plotter. At the same time, the drawing in progress is augmented with real-time projections, which results in a dynamic colouring that mixes real ink with projected light as a painterly medium.
Liat Grayver, Daniel Berio and Nora Al-Badri
The work is presented as a room installation consisting of a series of drawings made with the support of the e-David robotic painting lab at the University of Konstanz. Using software developed by Berio, a range of instances, each based on a mathematical model of Arabic patterns established by computer scientist Craig Kaplan, were derived using the system; a singular pattern was selected by the three artists as the source material to generate the entire body of drawings.
Focusing on robots, our third seminar explores the significance of the materiality of the body in the relationship between biology, AI and embodied knowledge.

A production of knowledge independent of hegemonically recognized knowledge is an intention that all the artists common to all the artists in the Kunst forscht exhibition and whose title is a reference to “Jugend forscht”, the well-known competition for pupils and young people in the natural sciences. The Israelian artist Liat Grayver, for example, makes use of intensive correspondence in the production of her paintings and drawings.
intensive correspondence with robots in the production of her paintings and drawings. The Berlin artist experiments with the transformation possibilities of the human voice.
Berlin artist and musician Katharina Hauke experiments with the transformation possibilities of the human voice. To this end, she is developing an apparatus that she calls the MikroKontrolleur. The Chemnitz-based artist deals with physical phenomena of Chemnitz artist Martin Lucas Schulze deals with physical phenomena of various kinds. The result, as he puts it, is an alternative knowledge production in which he wants to make the functional structures of decay processes visible.
From the systematic observation of climatic changes, the Swiss artist Swiss artist Marcus Maeder derives his artistic works captured in multimedia installations.

The show instigates a complex dialogue between an evolving deterministic process, computational vision analysis, and organic painterly action. Data extracted from a simulated world is transformed into real-world materials before being translated back into data in a continuous loop of action and reaction, of observation and depiction.
