About the course: This is an open call for 8 students who are interested in Artificial Intelligence as an art-making  platform. During the workshop a team of teachers and students will engage with readily available generative algorithm tools as part of Unreal Engine 4, in attempting to create an autonomously acting character(s) within emotionally meaningful artistic framework. The goal of the workshop is to explore a possibility of novel approaches in computer assisted creativity. We will try to crack open the enigma and find out if AI truly lives up to its name and delivers more than just the infamous deep fakes, predictable behavior or averaged output generated from different inputs.
