From the delicate unfolding of a tiny leaf to visions of blossoming skyscrapers, this inspired conversation with interdisciplinary artist Maria Blaisse and composer Kate Moore brings us all a step closer to a more harmonious future with AI. Through their respective languages of form and music, Maria and Kate share how their practices have afforded them glorious glimpses of a larger ‘intelligence’ that most cannot yet perceive. With or without our technologies, they explain, the way forward to (and through) such thresholds of energy and experience is a matter of deep attention, trust in processes of unfolding, and an embrace of the unknown.
