CVCAP’s From Nervous Agents to Cultural Outsiders
In this lecture, Patrick Tresset will give an overview of his practice of using embodied agents as actors to tell stories about us. He will trace the evolution of his work, from early robotic systems that drew as a raw, nervous reaction to reality to his most recent installations influenced by human culture, where the agents are now outsiders. Drawing from years of working alongside autonomous machines, he will also share his thoughts on AI, art and technology.
