With the increasing availability of technologies for artificial intelligence, the use of AI in the cultural and creative industries is growing rapidly. As a founding member of the Media Solution Center Baden-Württemberg, HLRS has supported artists and other creatives by providing the large-scale computing resources and the technical expertise they need to to develop and test new AI-based methods and concepts. Through close collaboration, HLRS has enabled artists to explore AI-based approaches in the visual arts, music, dance, and other fields.
Supported by the S+T+ARTS Air residency program, Uncharted Limbo Collective used HLRS computing and visualization infrastructure to develop a performance in which AI-enabled “digital beings” interacted in real time with human dancers.
HLRS scientists collaborated with the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra, the Hochschule der Medien, and the Hertz-Lab at the Center for Art and Media (ZKM) to investigate whether an algorithm could generate a new composition that Mozart might have produced.
For an exhibition at the Kunsthalle Tübingen, the media arts collective Lunar Ring created a deep learning framework that reinterprets paintings in ways that retain recognizable traces of the originals while simultaneously producing new effects.
