3×44: The Loch Dustbinness Monster
Stuart Langridge, Jono Bacon, and special guest star Alan Pope present Bad Voltage, in which intelligence is artificial, snaps are un-ned, and art is what you make it:
you “quickly and easily migrate from using snap for applications to flatpak”, and we’ll get into how
it works and why it exists
video for Zia Cora’s song “submarines”, where he put together a list of text queries and then
used AI algorithm Disco Diffusion to generate images as video frames. This sort of AI-generated
imagery and art is increasingly common, whether This
Person Does Not Exist or This Bench Does Not Exist or National
Novel Generation Month or whatever. But what are the wider ramifications of this, for ownership,
collaboration, and open source? What are your intuitions in this: is a list of text descriptions of
an image really the “source code” for that image? If someone uses the same queries that you did,
is their work a derivative work of yours? Would you feel delighted or ripped off if that happened?
This is all a new area, and it’s evolving very fast: where are the precedents for this sort of
collaborative art creation and where should we be drawing inspiration and understanding?
