About this Event
Chicago Creative Machines is a lecture-performance series featuring artists who use machine learning and ML-adjacent tools and techniques in their creative practice. All events are free and open to the public.
Each event consists of a technical lecture/demonstration by the artist of their tools followed by a performance of work they’ve created using those tools. No previous knowledge of machine learning, coding, algorithms, or computation is required!
About this workshop
Patricia Alves-Oliveira will address how robots can be used for unconventional tasks, such as being promotors of human creativity and artistic expression. She will share the design process and techniques to create robots for and with users. Her work has an impact on human empowerment and on visioning technology as a way to partner with (instead of substituting) humans.
