Art in the age of machine intelligence | Refik Anadol

This video is a look into the work of artist Refik Anadol, who mixes machines and art to create ‘data sculptures’. His work is composed of points of data that get translated by AI, with many of his more popular pieces being projected onto or incorporated into architecture.

From the video description: “What does it look like inside the mind of a machine? Inspired by the architectural vision of a futuristic Los Angeles in “Blade Runner,” media artist Refik Anadol melds art with artificial intelligence in his studio’s collaborations with architects, data scientists, neuroscientists, musicians and more. Witness otherworldly installations that might make you rethink the future of tech and creativity.”
