This talk will deconstruct the intricate process behind the creation of R.A.W., an audiovisual installation developed collaboratively by Nicol Chufi and Sophia Ammouri. It will explore how AI was thoughtfully integrated into the project, blurring the lines between the real and the artificial. Additionally, the talk will delve into the inherent biases in AI, offering speculative reflections on its impact on creativity, identity, underrepresented cultures, and society.
As an independent researcher, creator, and audiovisual artist, the presenter, Nicole Chufi, explores the dynamic intersection of art and technology. In this talk, she will showcase how AI tools can enhance creative control and authorship in visual and sonic projects. Attendees will gain a behind-the-scenes look at the resources and methods used in R.A.W., while engaging in critical discussions about the broader implications of AI in the creative process.
Sophia Ammouri – Main Collaborator in R.A.W project
With a passion for transforming rhythm-based compositions into captivating visual stories, Brazilian artist Nicole Chufi (she/her) brings her mixed heritage (Italian/Lebanese) and diverse background in visual arts, digital production, events, and sound to her work as a motion designer and audiovisual artist.
Her alternate perspectives set the foundation for exploring themes that question human nature while honoring authenticity. Through her practice at Feelz Lab, Nicole experiments with Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning tools, Interactive Design, and Spatial Design to create immersive experiences.
Recently, she contributed to the AI Performance Playground at Sónar Barcelona 2024 and participated in the Unmute Light residency at Värmeverket, which supports underrepresented artists. She has also shared her insights at events like Motion Plus Design Satellite, Hyper Island and Creative Mornings.
