About 'Arteryficial Intelligence'

 



Regarding the use of the word Artery [from the Greek word "αρτηρία"]

 

It is applied so as to highlight the concentric biomorphic features of the artworks.

As the arteries deliver the human blood from the heart to different parts of the body, in a circular motion,

 

Petrakis is attempting to map an Anatomy of Artificial Intelligence, as a living being which expands in all aspects of modern life.

 

Wires as optic nerves in the QR works. 

 

A heart statuette that defines endosymbiosis.




 

Video projections and bio politics.

 

All the means of applied digital knowledge as a study of neuroscience and cognitive behavior.

 

Protection / Isolation / Community 

 

Infinite borders of ever increasing automation.

 

Technology is the dominant currency.

 

Every communication is dilated through machinery.

 

Life as simulation / Software emulation 

 

From Homo Sapiens

to Homo Ludens [the man who plays, Latin] and Game Design

to Homo Faber [the man who creates, Latin] and Invention through Innovation 



 

A modern civilization of cross cultural references, which combines human studies, business, politics and art.

 

All artworks of the project are interconnected, an artificial neural network.

 

This digital analogy allows for multiple theoretical suggestions and applied knowledge.

 

The artworks are elevated to messages rather than mediums. 

 

The artist as a messenger, a harbinger of progress and technological utopianism.

 

Mike Petrakis therefore analyzes the very intent of Art in the context of societies who are built upon and rely on the [fragile]

High-tech advancements and adjustments.

 

The keyword is " biotic ".

 



[the word " organic " has been worn out of meaning]

Life and Art are conjoined in the project. 

 

Self awareness and evolution, personal and societal.

 

A dark yet humorous illustration of the many possibilities of civilization's collapse.

Artwork 'Heartificial'        On this post I present the statement and video of my new project, entitled  Arteryficial Intelligence' , which it deals with a very important current issues about human existence, technology, digital evolution and social issues and social media. Statement Nowadays, one thing is a fact. The continuous technological evolution and the continuous social changes.           Yet do our human existence, entity and culture, are they really developing?   The human species is in a state of confusion and conflict with technological development and evolution, which has affected its nature and position on our planet and in our society.           The constantly digital growth, the challenge of Artificial Intelligence and social media, are raising new questions about our destination and existence.            How does technology keep pace with human evolution?   Through my new work entitled 'Arteryficial Intelligence', I seek to highlight and illustrate

         On the work developing my new project entitled 'Arteryficial Intelligence', where you could read the statement and view a short video of photos from details of all the completed artworks so far at the link  https://mikepetrakis.blogspot.com/2021/08/my-new-work-entitled-arteryficial.html?m=1  , I would like to share some thoughts and tips about the statement, content and purpose of my new work, as well as a short videos from the two of the artworks which included on my new project, before completing their presentation and display.    While artists have been able to find new forms of expression in their art using AI, they’ve had to wrestle with the existential question that follows AI into any profession it’s introduced —  will AI replace artists?      It’s clear that even in the creative field, sophisticated technologies can be used to enhance our capabilities—but crucially they still require human intelligence to define the overarching rules and steer the way.       In
