Visual Creativity 2

“Hello” is an interactive cinematic generative artwork that gained traction within the Cultural Adventures research project, an international endeavor between Portugal and Thailand. The encompassing rationale assumed the need of a link connecting both countries, and thus “Hello” was born from the similarities that can be found in commuters that flock to and from both capital cities by train, often more engaged with their mobile phones than with their immediate surroundings – people, train or traversed landscapes –, which constitute more of a shapeless blurred audiovisual background than a sharp attention-grabbing focus. The artwork is also used as a demonstrator of the potential of generative art in producing complex cinematic narrative figurative artworks, yet permeated with interference, chaos and randomness, and how the audience perceives and makes sense of them through the ability to identify and create patterns, to conceptualize, to deal with information overload, and to imagine and build a narrative through abductive reasoning from incomplete yet suggestive information.

Hello, An Interactive Cinematic Generative Artwork

technical paper

Computational creativity is the art, science, philosophy and engineering of computational systems which, by taking on particular responsibilities, exhibit behaviours that unbiased observers would deem to be creative. As a field of research, this area is thriving, with progress in formalising what it means for software to be creative, along with many exciting and valuable applications of creative software in the sciences, the arts, literature, gaming and elsewhere.

The ICCC conference series organized by the Association for Computational Creativity since 2010 is the only scientific conference that focuses on computational creativity alone and also covers all aspects of it.
