You can’t know my mind

Exhibition at Gallerie Oberkampf July 2013 Paris.

Computational creativity offers the promise of changing how we view music, literature and the arts. On July 2013 there was a festival celebrating computer-generated art, music, poetry and cuisine at the Galerie Oberkampf in the heart of the 11th arrondissement in Paris. The centrepiece of the festival was an exhibition entitled You Can’t Know My Mind consisting of pieces generated, criticized and curated by software systems written by artificial intelligence researchers.

Computer artist The Painting Fool and computer critic DARCI have collaborated to produce and curate a set of visual art pieces and poems designed to challenge the idea that people are the centre of the creative universe. Come along and make your own mind up about the creative future for software.
