HOPE #3: How creative is AI? A Conversation with Paul Trillo
Manage episode 436184951 series 3490430
The winners of the annual Prix Ars Electronica, which honours outstanding achievements in the field of international media art, take centre stage at every Ars Electronica Festival. This year, for the first time, an award for 'AI in Art' was part of the competition. The first winner in this category, US director and video artist Paul Trillo, is known for his experimental and highly technical works of film.
Trillo was the first person to create an official music video with the AI video generator SORA from OpenAI, which produces content based on text prompts. The song that belongs to the video, ‘The Hardest Part’ by Washed Out, tells the story of leaving a lost love behind. Trillo's music video spans several decades, starting in the early 80s, and traces the relationship of a couple who meet at school. The four-minute video appears as an infinite zoom through time. The surreal mixtures of environments and impossible transitions - from cars to buildings and landscapes - create a fluid drift through dream worlds.
