Dear friends of OHP,

We are delighted to announce the latest book in the Media: Art: Write: Now series: Joanna Zylinska's AI Art: Machine Visions and Warped Dreams

Can computers be creative? Is algorithmic art just a form of Candy Crush? Cutting through the smoke and mirrors surrounding computation, robotics and artificial intelligence, Joanna Zylinska argues that, to understand the promise of AI for the creative fields, we must not confine ourselves solely to the realm of aesthetics. Instead, we need to address the role and position of the human in the current technical setup – including the associated issues of labour, robotisation and, last but not least, extinction. Offering a critique of the socio-political underpinnings of AI, AI Art: Machine Visions and Warped Dreams raises poignant questions about the conditions of art making and creativity today.

Freely available here:

Warmest wishes from us in this ravaged year when open access to research seems more important than ever.

Sigi, David, Gary
