art as architectural concept
semester 25/26 | in search for artificially enhanced creative processes
Is AI disrupting creative processes as we know them or is it simply a new tool among many? The course will search for artistic practices incorporating AI beyond image generation and ask what role AI can play in complex works of art or architectural designs.
The course takes a brief cultural-historical look at medial upheavals in art history and beyond in order to sharpen the sense for the effects of the use of AI. Excursions to artists’ studios are undertaken to gain direct insights into artistic practice with AI processes in exchange with the artists. In the plenary session of the course group, works of art that incorporate AI beyond image-generative processes will be discussed.
semester 24/25 | of other practices
Because the built environment extends into all areas of life, architecture as both a theoretical and practical discipline stands at numerous intersections and maintains reciprocal relationships with artistic, commercial, social, research‑based, and other practices. Without practicing architecture themselves, Anna Resch and Sebastian Jobst (Konnektom) have been engaged in a wide range of architecture‑related projects for more than 15 years. Their work spans from editing cultural and architectural history publications, serving as editors‑in‑chief of the former journal of the Federal Chamber of Architects and Civil Engineering Consultants, conceptualizing and realizing transdisciplinary music/performance productions, and co‑developing and co‑directing a transdisciplinary art institution, to coordinating an international EU project aimed at promoting architectural competitions.
Within the framework of the course, students gain insight into the structures and practical foundations of such projects. In addition, the course examines their embedding within cultural ecosystems, theoretical and cultural studies reference systems, as well as the commercial conditions that shape this transdisciplinary practice.
