Artia Project
The ArtIA project aims to create a laboratory for exploration and research into the challenges and impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) on the arts sector. It comprises four major initiatives:
- Chantier IA de Sporobole: Exploration of AI tools by artists during 130 weeks of research residencies, spread over three years, aimed at understanding the impact of AI on artistic creation;
- Controlled release of AI tools: Prototyping and experimental deployment of AI tools in cultural organizations to automate tasks and assess ethics and potential spin-offs;
- Creative AI practices and imaginaries: towards machine learning commons for digital creation. Collaboration between SAT, Sporobole and other partners to explore the design and uses of AI tools and infrastructures in digital creation, with a view to turning them into commons for the milieu;
- Knowledge documentation: Exploration of AI tools for knowledge capture. Creation of a collaborative knowledge base on AI in the arts and culture sector in conjunction with Projet Collectif.
This ambitious program emerges in the context of the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) and its impact on the arts and cultural sector. It brings together a tactical team of key players in the arts and culture sector in an action-research laboratory. With the aim of fostering a critical approach to the adoption of AI technologies within the artistic field, the project ensures that the value or benefits of these technologies remain within a milieu already weakened by two decades of globalizing digital evolution at its expense.
About the partners
As a center for artistic research and production, Sporobole is distinguished by its commitment to innovation in the arts. Focused on collective projects, Sporobole offers a scalable and flexible business model, bringing together leading-edge technology experts and close ties with the academic world.
The SAT (Society for Arts and Technology), recognized for its major role in digital creation, stands out for its interdisciplinary projects exploring the intersections between art, science and technology. It favors a participatory, experimental approach, creating a living laboratory where various creative fields converge.
Projet collectif provides expertise in documentation and knowledge enhancement, and its digital platform, Praxis, is an essential asset. Praxis offers the potential to host knowledge-base projects and amplify collaboration by enabling the pooling of knowledge.
Together, these partners form a powerful alliance, joining forces to structure the emergence of common ground in the fields of artificial intelligence and artistic creation.
