The Creative AI lab is a research programme for cultural institutions, artists, engineers, and researchers with an interest in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML). It is a partnership with the Department of Digital Humanities, King’s College.
Research questions
The Creative AI Lab investigates:
- how AI/ML tools can support artistic practices
- how artistic and curatorial practices are changing due to AI/ML
- creative AI/ML as a critical practice
- the aesthetics of AI/ML
This work supports cultural institutions, artists, engineers and researchers to engage with these technologies as a medium.
Research activities
In the fast-moving technology landscape, the Creative AI Lab dedicates time to consider and critically engage with AI/ML technologies.
To that end, we:
- produce the Creative AI Tools & Resources Database, a database of tools for artists, designers, engineers, curators and researchers
- organise research workshops, public discussions and writing sessions
- run online tutorials known as R&D Labyrinths
