Machine Learning Meets Bioart

Join us and the INCUBATOR art lab for a special Machine Learning meets Bioart "Just for Fun" session.

Participants will be invited to learn how to create their own machine-learning generated creature using web-based AI programs. In the workshop Nate Talbot will teach you how to assemble a dataset of images, how to train an AI on those images, and how to make a completed artwork out of the results. As machine learning becomes more accessible and advanced it will change the way we think about life, as well as art. Will bioart processes show us a way forward?

About INCUBATOR art lab: INCUBATOR art lab at the Intersection of Art, Science and Ecology is a physical and theoretical hub, a new art/science laboratory at The University of Windsor. Founded in 2009, it functions both as an apparatus in which environmental conditions can be controlled towards the assisted growth of life, but also as a site supporting the development of new ideas and artistic practices.

  • about Nate is a 2nd year MFA student at UWindsor specializing in 3D rendering, 3D scanning, VR model design, machine learning, and holography. With a background in philosophy focusing on aesthetics and post-structuralism Nate seeks to examine the confluence between technologically-produced simulations and real biological structures. Through the use of new technologies he seeks to deconstruct the artist's role as a medium between nature and the simulacrum.
