"This video contains flashing lights and images. Come and explore @Tate Modern's epic survey of art and technology from the 1950's to the 1990's. The show includes artist such as #takis #ottopienne and #briongysin #Csuri #artsciresearch as well as a host of fascinating artists, groups and collectives. Expect immersive experiences, weird and wonderful technological artworks and, of course, eerily accurate predictions of the future!" 22.12.2024 TATE MODERN

🟪Tribute to Herbert W. Franke 🟪
Namibia project: Computer Science Teacher Starts at OPEN DOORS
The foundation thanks all generative artists of the Tribute project making possible this support with their donations
As part of the cooperation with Tangeni Shilongo Namibia, computer science teacher Sem Amuthitu finally has started teaching at the OPEN DOORS Education Center (ODEC). It was made possible thanks to the support of the Foundation Herbert W. Franke. The non-profit organization Tangeni has been designing and setting up educational programs for children and young people in Namibia since 2015. The school currently offers classes for grades 1 to 3 with 25 children each and has an IT center, a library and homework supervision. In addition, the pupils are served warm, nutritious meals twice a day, all free of charge.
With Sem, the IT course has been firmly integrated into the school curriculum now. In addition, computer science courses are offered to interested young people and adults in the region. The primary target group for all services is the residential area DRC (Democratic Resettlement Community), a region with around 40,000 inhabitants in the most basic living conditions and adjacent neighborhoods. @HerbertWFranke

AI can generate images instantly, but every result is different.
You can train your own model, mix images, fine-tune outputs, or even create entirely new aesthetics—there’s endless room for creativity.
Photography works the same way: anyone can take pictures with a phone, but the decisions framing, gear, lighting, editing define the artistry.
AI art isn’t just about pressing a button; it’s about the choices behind it.
Not long ago, people argued that photography wasn’t art. Now, the same debate is happening with AI.

💭 Kevin Abosch, 2023: "The wise artist doesn’t fear emergent technology, but rather asks, 'How can I use this tool in a meaningful way?' What I find so valuable in AI, and deep-learning algorithms in particular, is its power to surface that which I may not have been able to without assistance.
In working intimately with AI, the artist has the opportunity to come under the influence of the machine. This is not a simple transaction from which one walks away unchanged. The machine can teach us a different way of looking at a subject, often leaving us with another understanding and with enhanced sensibilities. We are changed.
Indeed, to properly navigate our AI-future, this form of evolution is necessary. Artists and philosophers will be our guides."

In our Artist Highlight series, we introduce the artist duo Jennifer @JennMcCoySpace and Kevin McCoy @mccoyspace, based in New York, who work with interactive media, film, performance, and installation. Their practice explores how technology, mass media, personal experience, and global commerce shape cultural narratives, influencing both individual perception and broader societal structures. Kevin McCoy is also known for creating Quantum in 2014, the first blockchain-registered artwork, which played a significant role in the early history of NFTs.

Over the past century, modern and postmodern movements have consistently redefined what art can be. From the early 20th century onward, artists began to challenge the traditional focus on technical skill and craftsmanship. Movements like Dada, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, and Conceptual Art shifted the established norms in both the effort-based production domain and how art is perceived. These movements questioned the very nature of art, pushing it towards a more conceptual and idea-driven practice.
Art has progressively moved away from the constraints of manual skill and towards the realm of vision and concept. This shift has allowed artists to explore new mediums and forms, liberating art from the traditional confines of technique. I consider AI as the next step in this evolution. While some may see this as a threat to traditional artistry, I view it as a natural progression in the liberation of art. This technology doesn't diminish the role of the artist; instead, it expands the possibilities of what art can be.
Check out my conversation with Anika Meier; we discussed my collection L'avventura and my thoughts on AI art.

✨Blue Waltz
A play of light in the soft blue.
It spins, it dances, so cool, so much.
A sparkle, glass, a green glow.
The dance weaves silently in the shadows.

✨Keep an eye on the underwater garden!
Inspired by Monet’s water lilies, Between Zero and One 032 simulates a generative underwater garden, highlighting the beauty and importance of aquatic ecology. Underwater plants keep water clear and oxygen-rich and provide habitats for fish, insects, and other marine life.

ALT „032“ The image is an abstract representation of glowing, flowing shapes in blue, purple, and green, reminiscent of an underwater scene. The colors blend and flow together, creating a dynamic and fluid effect. The shapes resemble liquids with an organic and irregular texture. The overall effect is bright blue and vibrant, creating a sense of movement and energy.
