The "the Generative Space-2048" is not only a collision and interaction between artificial intelligence and human creation, but also an exploration of "control" and "out of control". We hope to utilize this attempt to respond to the eternal question of artistic creation: what is the relationship between randomness and control?
In the increasingly digitized age, creative tools are constantly evolving. The new tools not only make more complex and stunning visual effects possible, but they also blur the the boundaries between technology and art, often rendering them indistinguishable.
While technology seemingly expands our creative possibilities, it also brings a profound fear: that we might lose our direction in randomness, or even our sense of self. Much of the criticism and resistance to technology stems from this underlying fear of losing control, similar to the ambivalence towards AI. So, should we firmly grasp the core of creation—the expression of "self"—and persistently adhere to fully controlled creative methods? Or should we let go of the "ego," take a deep dive, and more courageously embrace randomness? In other words, in this new era where technology and art are increasingly intertwined, how should we view these new tools and use them to create works that are both impactful and imaginative?
"the Generative Space-2048" is our answer.
2048生成艺术展廊空间是studio nano对未来个人化的数字艺术展览的探索与畅想:在全面数字化的下一代互联网,数字身份会成为个体的个性表达的重要组成部分,数字资产也会变成个人资产的重要组成部分。相应的,我们如何在数字空间里展示和社交呢?
2048展廊通过「赛博空间原型」的方式表达了我们的创意与畅想:每个人都可以拥有一个可变的个人空间,并根据需求个性化地展示自己的数字资产,在空间里和朋友们进行社交与互动。这个空间可以根据实际需求自由的变换形式:从最基本的几何形式出发,可以顺滑的在圆形、方形、六边形、八角形等之间自由转变与切换。空间的形态和氛围也可以根据展示作品的风格与色彩通过AI算法自动的生成与变化,产生无限的可能性。 这个作品的灵感来自我们对创作过程的思考:我们意识到在创作中,创作者一方面有很强的表达欲,而这些展现“自我”的表达往往通过对创作工具、手法、风格的一系列控制实现;另一方面,很多惊艳的艺术效果恰恰来自一些随机和即兴的瞬间。
在信息传播越来越数字化的时代,创作工具也不断迭代——新工具不仅让更复杂更惊艳的视觉效果成为可能,更深的影响是:科技与艺术会更多的融合在一起,甚至不分彼此。而科技表面上让我们的创作拥有了更多可能性的同时,也带来了一个深层恐惧:我们人类会在随机中迷失方向,甚至失去自我;很多对科技的批评和抵触都来自于底层对“失去控制“的恐惧,对AI展现的矛盾心态也是类似。
那么我们到底应该牢牢把握住创作的核心——“自我”的表达,始终坚持完全的掌控式的创作方法?还是应该放下“小我”,纵深一跃,更勇敢地拥抱随机?在科技与艺术越来越融合的新时代,我们应该如何看待新工具,并用它们创作出具有感染力和想象力的作品呢?
我们认为,探索随机与控制的关系正是关键所在。“2048展廊”这个作品追随着这条线索,是人类创作与AI创作的碰撞与追问,更是对“控制”与“失控”的平衡和探索,我们希望用这次尝试来叩问和回应艺术创作的永恒母题:随机与控制的关系几何?
