Interaction, interpolation and interplay between game and user
Interplaytions was a project incubated by A.I.MAGINE, a 6-month media art project backed by the Seoul City Government that attempted to explore the relationship between AI and humans.
The existence of a 'creative AI' fears a lot of people, as if it can substitute human creators. I wanted to raise questions about this point of view. If AI is capable of producing millions of meaningful creations, how would human creativity be like in the feature? Will human artists be replaced by efficient robot artists?
Instead of trying to define what human creativity is, we focused on one of the essences of human creativity - play. Our team decided to make an interactive game that allows the player to create music with an AI composer. We wanted the player to perceive the AI composer as a creative agent while maintaining the playfulness of creating.
