• The technical use of AI should help shed decisive light on transformative changes in a wide range of social and political arenas. Topics that should reflect a future artistic perspective include work and daily life, body and mind, urbanization and democracy, environment and sustainability, and future technologies.
• This call is open to all artists who are innovatively applying machine learning in their artistic practice. Regardless of their specialization. For this edition, special consideration will be given to entries that test new possibilities for interaction between the artwork and its recipients through the use of technologies such as deep learning and reinforcement learning.
• AI-powered artwork will be created and produced during the residency and will be presented at ZKM | Karlsruhe and the German Museum Nuremberg - Museum of the Future.
• All software code developed under the project will be deposited in the project's GitLab code repository "smart. museum" under an open source license with understandable comments, and thus made available to the relevant developer communities as well as to the general public for their use and further development.
• Each site will provide colleagues with access to site-specific resources and opportunities throughout the project.
• Colleagues will have access to a dedicated AI server, built for high-end computing hardware and accelerate training on medium to large-scale deep learning models. The device features an EPYC 7502P server CPU and two A100 PCIe GPU cards.
