Artists whose work is featured in the exhibition "Blurring the Lines: Art at the Intersection of Human and Artificial Creativity" speak about their work from 10:30 to noon, with a moderated roundtable discussion to follow in the gallery from 1:30 to 3 pm.
The artists who will speak about their work include the following:
- Adam Chau, independent artist whose work blends traditional craft with digital fabrication. In this exhibition, Chau explores how AI and digital processes redefine ceramics, pushing the boundaries between human touch and machine precision.
- Johann Diedrick, an artist, engineer, and researcher whose sound-based installations highlight the intersections between AI, interactivity, and perception. His work in the exhibition questions how technology shapes sensory experiences in unexpected ways.
- Megan Young, Eskenazi School digital art lecturer and
interdisciplinary artist whose work explores power dynamics and social interactions through new media and performance. Young’s contribution to the exhibition uses AI-driven participation to critique and expand the role of technology in embodiment and interaction.
From 1:30 to 3 these artists will engage with additional panelists for a roundtable discussion about the exhibition and broader ideas related to the arts, AI, and creativity. The panel will be moderated by Ed Comentale, IU Professor of English and Associate Vice Provost for Arts and Humanities at Indiana University whose work spans literature, cultural studies, and the arts.
Additional panelists include the following:
- Rachel Plotnick, IU Associate Professor, The Media School. Plotnick’s research focuses on human-machine interaction and the historical role of technology in everyday life, offering insights into the broader social impacts of AI.
- Joanna Woronkowicz – IU Associate Professor, Arts Administration, O'Neill School of Public and Environmental Policy Indiana University. Woronkowicz specializes in cultural policy and arts economics, focusing on how AI and technological innovations affect the creative industries and the sustainability of arts organizations.
