Exploring Creative Boundaries
Workshops: Generative AI and Innovation
Overview: This workshop will introduce participants to the emerging field of artificial intelligence (AI) applied to creative processes, focusing on tools for generating audiovisual content, both static and dynamic, as well as sound. The session will explore how such tools can enhance creative workflows, addressing technical and ethical issues while encouraging philosophical reflections on the future of creativity, artistic responsibility, and authorship today.
Objective: By the end of the workshop, participants will have a basic understanding of AI-based generative tools in various creative fields, will learn about hybrid creative processes that combine human creativity with AI support, will understand the challenges and opportunities related to AI use, and will have gained hands-on experience using AI tools to collaboratively create content.
