Layers of movement captured in abstraction: @_ScottEaton_ ’s Contemplating Motion is like watching AI learn to dance with memory and light. An ethereal play of forms, fading in and out like echoes of thought 👀 @FeralFile

the secret is in the negative space.
One of the most fascinating artworks I've ever collected is 𝘾𝙖𝙧𝙮𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙙𝙨 by @_ScottEaton_. The piece merges hauntingly beautiful forms that shift between organic and inorganic shapes, creating a structure that feels alive

Also running a drawing workshop at the VIEW Conference @ViewConference (tomorow). Two hours of drawing in the sketchbook, good old-fashioned fun.

Excited to be giving a talk at the amazing @ViewConference titled "Out of Distribution - Thriving Creatively in the Age of AI" (viewconference.it/). The talk covers a lot of ground, but essentially it's about how we, as artists and creatives, need to think about situating our work and careers in relationship to this new, relentlessly disruptive technology. I also share many examples of my AI/ML experiments, including a behind-the-scenes look at my recent takeover of Times Square. Hope to see you there! Special thanks to @Lenovo and @nvidia for sponsoring this talk.

Excited to be giving a talk for @Google today titled, "Inside Pandora's Box: Bodies, Geometry & Internet-scale Intrigue". Lots of images, videos and reflections on my last six or seven years exploring machine learning / AI in my work.

Excited to share a few additional experiments from @MetaAI 's Make-A-Scene. The compositional control is a powerful augmentation on top of the imaginative capabilities of these text-to-image models. These are all from the same semantic layout, just prompt variations.
“Make-A-Scene provides a level of control that’s been missing in other SOTA generative AI systems. Text prompting alone is constrained, often like wandering in the dark. Being able to control the composition is a powerful extension for artists & designers” - artist @_ScottEaton_

Interestingly, if the text prompt is entirely unrelated to the categories prescribed in the label, Make-A-Scene uses the label only as loose guidance for compositional layout. Here are a few examples where the text prompts were wildly different from 'bowl,mirror,vase' categories.

a few more from the same. Where the mask and prompt are not aligned, the semantic mask still gives very useful direction to the generator, but doesn't overly constain it. Here exploring abstract possibilities. #MakeAScene @MetaAI

We asked AI artists @refikanadol, @soficrespo91, @artBoffin, & @_ScottEaton_ to use it as part of their creative process. “The additional control with the sketch enhances my imagination by offering groundbreaking approaches to SOTA generative AI models,” Refik told us.

Very excited to finally introduce the FAIR Artists in Residence program! What an honor and absolute pleasure to be working with these amazing AI artists -- Sofia Crespo (@soficrespo91), Scott Eaton (@_ScottEaton_) and Stephanie Dinkins!
Our #AI Artist in Residence program recently hosted three artists who use AI in their creative practices. As part of our AI for Creativity efforts, we celebrate the interdisciplinary collaboration between art and science using AI to enhance human creativity. Meet the artists:
