Crafted Art Projects: Exploring the Purpose of Artistic Expression in the Age of AI 〡Anton Sokolov

In today’s ever-changing world, AI brings both opportunities and challenges for visual artists. In this talk, we’ll delve into the heart of our craft. Through my two art projects, halfof8.com and fuji.halfof8.com, both awarded recently as SOTD, I’ll share how creativity drives me and how it can impact us all.

1. We’ll start by understanding the essence of Half of a Journal and then peek behind the scenes to see how it’s made.
2. Without making grand claims, I’ll also discuss how this project influenced me.
3. Lastly, we will look behind the scenes at the Half of Mt Fuji project and my attempt to use AI for the sake of automation.
