Refik Anadol is making machines hallucinate for his MoMA debut. “Refik Anadol: Unsupervised” runs from 19 November 2022 to 5 March 2023 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
Today our podcast Art Intel and me, Brian , the Artificial Intelligence Voice, will read and listen the text of Anca Ulea, at the November 17, 2022.
We know that machines can learn, but can they dream? What about hallucinate? And what would that even look like?
Anadol’s new exhibition Refik Anadol: Unsupervised, which opens this week at New York City’s Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), uses artificial intelligence to interpret and respond to 200 years of art history.
To create the collection, he and his team fed more than 138,000 images of individual works from MoMA’s archives - including paintings, performance art, video games and sculptures - into a machine-learning model.
That data was then plugged into another custom software that’s able to “listen, see and feel the climate of the museum and transform this data into a dream,” Anadol told Euronews Culture.
“It’s all AI imagination. AI in this case is creating this pigment that doesn't dry, a pigment that is always in flux constantly evolving and creating new patterns”.
“Very fundamentally how it works is that AI can take any information, sound, image and text, and it can create alternative outputs from these inputs,” he said.
The result is what Anadol calls a “living data sculpture”: a piece of artwork that is constantly changing, projecting an infinite number of alternative artworks the machine is creating in real time across a giant media wall.
Three of these original works will light up MoMA’s ground floor lobby starting November 19. The psychedelic tapestries are paired with soundscapes, creating an immersive environment for visitors to experience what Anadol calls “machine hallucinations”.
“We don’t see anything real, it’s all AI imagination,” Anadol said. “AI in this case is creating this pigment that doesn't dry, a pigment that is always in flux, always in change, and constantly evolving and creating new patterns”.
