In his talk interaction designer and digital artist Andreas Refsgaard describes how machine learning has become an integrated part of the practise.
By enabling people to decide upon and train their own unique controls for a system, the creative power shifts from the designer of the system to the person interacting with it.
Using machine learning to make unconventional connections between inputs and outputs Andreas has made projects where games are controlled by making silly sounds, music is composed by drawing instruments on paper and algorithms are trained to decide what is funny, funky or boring.

Popular music provides the ultimate gauge of contemporary attitudes about culture, politics and society at large. It’s the language we use to subconsciously discuss and deliberate the issues of the day.

It creates an understanding of a society’s collective attitude. And with that, one could say that the music industry has the answers to some pretty compelling cultural questions.

No matter what, “we can fix it”, Mark Zuckerberg and other tech pioneers, some of them downright fanatical, are certain. But solving all problems by technology is impossible. And that’s a good thing.
