CIN AI: Building an AI as an Artist_Self Portrait
Date: 2019.11.25~26, 13:30~16:30
Venue: Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts, TNUA
Lecturer: Fahrettin Örenli


Introduction
The workshop will mainly deal with how we as human beings use a ‘self-mechanism’ to refine early-stored (childhood) information until the end of our lives. Each individual has his or her own mechanism to refine this information into knowledge, which means the knowledge is merged first and then stored in a human brain to evolve further as a consciousness. How can we apply this process to art and artists? How do artists refine information into knowledge as artworks? Human beings also merge knowledge to create a collective consciousness of knowledge (physical evidence of consciousness in life), so that it could exist eternally even after our physical bodies have expired. If we are able to transform an artist consciousness to an AI or create AI that evolves eternally, then the AI needs a software, a pattern of refining mechanism from each individual, basically all his or her life needs to be followed and registered to see how they synthesize information to knowledge and how they merge knowledge to build their consciousness as entities.

In the workshop, participants will recollect their experiences (as a self-portrait) such as their earliest memory, knowledge or their first artworks. Later, participants will develop ideas, draw diagrams/drawings to discover their refining mechanisms. With these mechanisms, participants can imagine themselves as forms of software or AI acting as artists or creators that have abilities to refine the information to create new and unique artworks. The expectation of workshop is: an individual will define, recognize and compare his or her life perspectives before and after their profession. In this case, ‘how a person rebuilds him or herself step by step as an artist, and become a new person with a new vision and perspective to look at the life’.

If a person such as Darwin or Da Vinci exists as AI eternally, does it mean they can continuously develop and understand lives in universe?
