CyberArt: A.I.s As Artistic Assistance

Here are some impressions of the opening of the art exhibition and auction, wich has been visited well and was introduced with a well chosen set of cyber-related music, mostly soundtracks, by DJane Fuyuko Amano. Most of the artwork got already bids, but can be outbid until 31st of December. In the gallery a hudbook is available with a description of each work and its creator. The assemblages are very unique and consist of a a.i. assisted basic picture, which has been enhanced by the artists with SL tools (sound, text, animation). Thanks to all the guests and to the Rockcliffe University for providing the space and the prims. 



























"CyberArt, also known as cybernetic or digital art in a broader sense, is a genre of art that incorporates technology and digital media into its design and presentation. The history of CyberArt can be traced back to the 1982 film Blade Runner, which depicts a dystopian future world with advanced technology and artificial beings. Another influential work in the development of CyberArt is the 1995 anime film Ghost in the Shell, which explores themes of artificial intelligence and the blurring of boundaries between man and machine.

Cyber art is often characterized by surreal elements such as rain, Asian symbols, flying fish, dark urban environments, and artificial creatures and plants. These elements create a sense of unease and otherness, evoking the feeling of being in a parallel world. Asmita Duranjaya, an art theorist and researcher in the field of cyber art, sees in them the projection of an occidental idea of the future Asia and the subliminal fear of an increasingly decadent Western world of Asian dominance.

In addition to its surreal features, CyberArt often explores themes of identity, consciousness, and the impact of technology on society. These themes are exemplified in works such as the Matrix trilogy, which raises questions about the nature of reality and the role of technology in shaping our understanding of the world.

Overall, CyberArt is a fascinating and complex genre that continues to evolve as technology advances. Its surreal elements and thematic explorations make it a unique and thought-provoking art form." (assisted by https://chat.openai.com/auth/login).
