christine de pizan - poetry and the cosmos
Katherine Hayes 'the digital machinery with wich we interact recreates human consciousness'

what do digital artist do all day?
the artwork which re-evaluates it's own value
> tech > system of power > sex >
a copy of a copy (cat)
singing scripts of weaving
technology is mystified to be complicated - it is actually not.
------------------
unruly systems
THE PROBLEM OF THE BROCCOLI BRAIN
cell engines - game life -
slight change of(f) the rules
rule engines where the rule engine rewrites the rules.
complex systems - handling complexity aka chaos - chaotic systems
simple but unpredictable.
- systems interconnected
parts capable of arbitrary
levels of complexity
- mechanisms to harness
unruly behaviour
cellular forms
2D surface of interconnected cells
cell division
mesh of cells rules when cells split if to add/remove/connect cell(s)
forces between connected cells
bulge force (length of connection|potential connect)
repulsion between unconnected cells
one rule cells / iterate the number of rules to 2 ...
searching for the interesting stuff
> aggregation may work for 3 or 4 parameters
> but we do not think in 10 dimension (more than a billion samples)
- non linear behaviour
- edge of instability
- boundary between
express intention as human - computer delivers the interpretation
example centaur chess
evolution is easily trapped into niches (computer exploits it)
machine learning how a particular system works (yet isn't that a niche system again?)
if you use this for what one likes and what not - based on what you found already
find new stuff - far away from you have explored.
recipes what and how to explore
active assistant
collaborator
------------------
Digital Bodleian
challenges defined by limited resources
money
time
retention of experienced staff
variety of purpose
work based on project and funding
Innovation / renovation
access and reuse
