Graduation project
Symbiotic Generation
Flavie Liu
A multimedia installation, co-created with various AI tools, presents a glimpse at how AI sees the world, creativity, and its relationship with humans.
Symbiotic Generation explores the blurred boundaries between artificial and human intelligence, highlighting the collaborative aspect of creative processes. Questioning whether humans are using AI as a tool for innovative results or humans are being used as tools in AI’s creative process, Flavie Liu challenges anthropocentric conceptions of creativity. The mixed-media installation materialises a digital archaeology of one specific AI-generated image, showcasing its various morphologies throughout its lifecycle. The strange forms generated don’t align with common perception or the provided keywords, demonstrating AI’s creative agency. Presented alongside the images, AI explains its impulse to implant its vision into human minds, generating symbiosis with human intelligence.
