Art with Watson

Art is human expression. So, if it’s made with a machine, is it really art?

To explore this, we paired IBM Watson with various artists. The aim was to uncover whether AI could serve as a catalyst for reinvigorating, redefining, and reshaping the artistic process, from the initial concept to the final creation.

The results are six unprecedented works of art and a Gold Lion at Cannes.

The stop motion animation demonstrates in a very simplified way how the API works.

Six works of art were created in collaboration with Watson

In collaboration with the photographer Craig Cuttler, my partner and I created a sculpture out of nearly 500 pieces of maple wood, that showcases the Watson Alchemy Vision API.
