Book excerpt: The creative collaborations of engineers, artists, scientists, and curators over the past fifty years. Artwork as opposed to experiment? Engineer versus artist? We often see two different cultural realms separated by impervious walls. But some fifty years ago, the borders between technology and art began to be breached. In this book, W. Patrick McCray shows how in this era, artists eagerly collaborated with engineers and scientists to explore new technologies and create visually and sonically compelling multimedia works. This art emerged from corporate laboratories, artists' studios, publishing houses, art galleries, and university campuses. Many of the biggest stars of the art world--Robert Rauschenberg, Yvonne Rainer, Andy Warhol, Carolee Schneemann, and John Cage--participated, but the technologists who contributed essential expertise and aesthetic input often went unrecognized.

This art emerged from corporate laboratories, artists' studios, publishing houses, art galleries, and university campuses. Many of the biggest stars of the art world—Robert Rauschenberg, Yvonne Rainer, Andy Warhol, Carolee Schneemann, and John Cage—participated, but the technologists who contributed essential expertise and aesthetic input often went unrecognized. Coming from diverse personal backgrounds, this roster of engineers and scientists includes Frank J. Malina, the American rocket pioneer-turned-kinetic artist who launched the art-science journal Leonardo, and Swedish-born engineer Billy Klüver, who established the group Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T). At schools ranging from MIT to Caltech, engineers engaged with such figures as artist Gyorgy Kepes and celebrity curator Maurice Tuchman. Today, we are in the midst of a new surge of corporate and academic promotion of projects and programs combining art, technology, and science. Making Art Work reveals how artists and technologists have continually constructed new communities in which they exercise imagination, display creative expertise, and pursue commercial innovation.

Download or read book Making Art With Generative AI Tools written by Hai-Jew, Shalin and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the dynamic realm of generative artificial Intelligence (AI), the fusion of human creativity and machine intelligence has created a vibrant ecosystem of collaborative artmaking. However, this transformative process brings forth a myriad of concerns, ranging from ethical considerations and the need for originality to navigating the legal complexities surrounding intellectual property. As more and more online communities appear around the use of AI to aid in the creation of images, there arises a pressing need for a comprehensive guide that not only dissects the intricacies of artmaking with generative AI tools but also offers practical solutions to the evolving dilemmas faced by artists, researchers, and technologists. Making Art With Generative AI Tools emerges as an exploration of the challenges posed by this intersection of human expression and artificial intelligence. Artists engaging with generative AI find themselves grappling with issues of authenticity, social toxicity, and the commercial viability of their creations. From avoiding stereotypical visuals to ensuring proper crediting, the realm of generative AI is rife with these complexities. Furthermore, the blurred lines between human and machine authorship necessitate a deeper exploration of how these innovative tools impact creativity, representation, and the very fabric of the art world.

Download or read book Making Art Together written by Mark Cooper and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2007-08-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artist Mark Cooper aims to change the way you think about making art with kids. Working with schools around the country, Cooper has brought together scores of teachers and hundreds of children to make remarkable collaborative art that has enlivened classrooms and public spaces and been displayed in the nation's most prestigious museums. In this inspiring, practical, idea-filled book, Cooper shows how any teacher—not just art teachers—can imagine and execute similar projects in their own classrooms. But more than that, Cooper transforms our sense of possibilities, arguing for a new view of art in schools. Making Art Together is a book about art education structured around big ideas: that adults can flourish in the role of Master Artist, that the perspective of contemporary art offers liberating possibilities for rethinking art in schools, that art can and should be about the larger world, and thus naturally ties in to all areas of the curriculum. Most of all, Cooper shows us the power of collaboration. From mammoth, freestanding sculptures to billboards against violence to maps of the world, the projects here are all planned, designed, and completed by children themselves. The resulting artwork is complex and ambitious on a scale that would be out of reach for any individual child. Working collaboratively, using a distinctly democratic model, kids actually think and work like adult artists throughout every stage of the project. Together the sky's the limit—the artistic and educational opportunities are boundless. Making Art Together is a bold, beautifully illustrated book that could—at a time when art budgets are being slashed—revitalize our sense of what art in schools can accomplish.
