In this series of two concerts showcasing leading artist-researchers experimenting with AI and complex systems models — attached to the European Research Council-funded project Music and AI: Building Critical Interdisciplinary Studies — computational systems will be used to explore themes of agency and performative creativity, and to find new ways to control spatialisation, compose algorithmic patterns, and respond to bodily gesture.

The performances will be followed by open Q & A and discussion with the artists about how and why they are using AI/machine learning.
