The meeting point of art and science as a place of inspiration, exchange of knowledge and creation is the main focal point of the talk. Together with Prof. Oliver Deussen, the PhD candidate Marvin Guelzow, and Liat Grayver we will discuss both the technical challenges and innovation aspects in the development of the e-David robot, alongside the the social and artistic practice its offers. Topics as such “paradigms of creativity” under the title “New Materialism / Anthropocentrism / Posthumanism” will be presented with the goal to position and understand machine-assisted creative interfaces within the broader field of media art and painting traditions.
