Prague's City Center Sparkles, Buzzes, and Burns at the Signal Festival
The annual Signal Festival, an expo for experimental digital art, tested boundaries and warped minds in the Czech capital. The Signal Festival took over several venues in Prague in October with a mix of digital art, performances, and interactive installations. The Czech Republic's largest digital art festival became an international phenomenon this year as it once again transformed the center of Prague into a laboratory for visual experimentation. The 13th edition of the Signal Festival, which took place from October 16 to 19, presented 20 installations by Czech and international artists, including projections on a cloud of mist and interactive objects that responded to the movements of viewers. The Lone Soul Disco performance was choreographed by Viktor Konvalinka.
This tool strips away anti-AI protections from digital art
To be clear, the researchers behind LightShed aren't trying to steal artists' work. They just don't want people to get a false sense of security. "You will not be sure if companies have methods to delete these poisons but will never tell you," says Hanna Foerster, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge and the lead author of a paper on the work. And if they do, it may be too late to fix the problem. AI models work, in part, by implicitly creating boundaries between what they perceive as different categories of images.

Exciting AI tools and games you can try for free
WEHEAD connects to ChatGPT and displays a face, expressions and voice. My brain just does not work that way. I tried to learn Photoshop but gave up. Now, I create fun images using AI. Some AI tech is kind of freaky (like this brain-powered robot), but many of the new AI tools out there are just plain fun.
What Determines the Price of NFTs?
Ziemke, Vivian, Estermann, Benjamin, Wattenhofer, Roger, Wang, Ye
In the evolving landscape of digital art, Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) have emerged as a groundbreaking platform, bridging the realms of art and technology. NFTs serve as the foundational framework that has revolutionized the market for digital art, enabling artists to showcase and monetize their creations in unprecedented ways. NFTs combine metadata stored on the blockchain with off-chain data, such as images, to create a novel form of digital ownership. It is not fully understood how these factors come together to determine NFT prices. In this study, we analyze both on-chain and off-chain data of NFT collections trading on OpenSea to understand what influences NFT pricing. Our results show that while text and image data of the NFTs can be used to explain price variations within collections, the extracted features do not generalize to new, unseen collections. Furthermore, we find that an NFT collection's trading volume often relates to its online presence, like social media followers and website traffic.

The Intersection of Art and Technology: Exploring the World of Digital Creativity
Art and technology have a unique intersection that has been explored in various fields, ranging from film and music to video games and gambling. With the rise of digital technology, art has found a new medium to explore and experiment with. The world of digital creativity has opened up endless possibilities for artists and creatives, allowing them to push the boundaries of what was previously thought possible. One field where this intersection has had a significant impact is gambling. Gambling has evolved from simple card games to a billion-dollar industry with the rise of online casinos and mobile apps. The gambling industry has been quick to embrace technology, and as a result, we have seen an explosion in the number of games and betting options available.

DC-Art-GAN: Stable Procedural Content Generation using DC-GANs for Digital Art
Gandikota, Rohit, Brown, Nik Bear
Art is an artistic method of using digital technologies as a part of the generative or creative process. With the advent of digital currency and NFTs (Non-Fungible Token), the demand for digital art is growing aggressively. In this manuscript, we advocate the concept of using deep generative networks with adversarial training for a stable and variant art generation. The work mainly focuses on using the Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network (DC-GAN) and explores the techniques to address the common pitfalls in GAN training. We compare various architectures and designs of DC-GANs to arrive at a recommendable design choice for a stable and realistic generation. The main focus of the work is to generate realistic images that do not exist in reality but are synthesised from random noise by the proposed model. We provide visual results of generated animal face images (some pieces of evidence showing a blend of species) along with recommendations for training, architecture and design choices. We also show how training image preprocessing plays a massive role in GAN training.
Cryptocurrencies and AI art: a revolution in the making
Cryptocurrencies have been making waves in the financial industry for quite some time, but did you know they're also starting to make their way into the world of art? Specifically, the integration of cryptocurrencies and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is starting to transform the art industry in new and exciting ways. One of the main ways cryptocurrencies are impacting the art world is through the use of NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens), which are digital assets that can represent ownership of unique items, such as artwork. NFTs are based on blockchain technology, which provides a secure and decentralized way to verify ownership and authenticity of digital assets. NFTs are being used to sell and trade digital art pieces, allowing artists to receive payment for their work and for collectors to own a unique and valuable piece of digital art.
Goodbye, Photoshop Fails: The New AI Generator As Art Critic
Today, I come bearing exciting news from the world of art and technology. As we all know, the advent of digital technology has revolutionized the way we create and consume art. However, what if I told you that there's a new AI tool in town that will take things to the next level? Post Photoshop Age brings both power and responsibility - a new AI generator would have kept Madonna in check and Kendal Jenner well-fingered. Yes, my friends, you heard it right.
9 Free AI Tools for Artists and Designers
Art and technology have long been intertwined, and with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), the relationship between the two has become even more complex. AI can now be used to generate unique pieces of artwork and designs, opening up new possibilities for artists and designers. In this article, we'll explore the use of AI for artists and designers, how AI-generated art and designs work, and 9 free AI tools that artists and designers can use to bring their ideas to life. AI is transforming the way artists and designers work, providing new opportunities for creativity and innovation. AI algorithms can generate unique designs, patterns, and even entire pieces of artwork, allowing artists and designers to explore new territories that were previously out of reach.
