This paper considers AI model churn as an opportunity for frugal investigation of large AI models. It describes how the incessant push for ever more powerful AI systems leaves in its wake a collection of obsolete yet powerful AI models,…
Photographs convey the stories of photographers to the audience. However, this story-telling aspect of photography is easily distracted by visual clutter. Informed by a pilot study, we identified the kinds of clutter that amateurs…
As generative AI technologies rapidly advance, AI agents are gaining the ability not only to collect data and perform tasks but also to respond to environments and evolve over time. This shift opens new possibilities for reimagining digital…
In recent years, the underwater image formation model has found extensive use in the generation of synthetic underwater data. Although many approaches focus on scenes primarily affected by discoloration, they often overlook the model's…
With the rise of freely available image generators, AI-generated art has become the centre of a series of heated debates, one of which concerns the concept of human creativity. Can an image generation AI exhibit ``creativity'' of the same…
This paper explores the potential of generative AI within interactive art, employing a practice-based research approach. It presents the interactive artwork "Visions of Destruction" as a detailed case study, highlighting its innovative use…
AI constructivism as inspired by Jean Piaget, described and surveyed by Frank Guerin, and representatively implemented by Gary Drescher seeks to create algorithms and knowledge structures that enable agents to acquire, maintain, and apply a…
Art curatorial practice is characterized by the presentation of an art collection in a knowledgeable way. Machine processes are characterized by their capacity to manage and analyze large amounts of data. This paper envisages AI curation…
Generative AI techniques like those that synthesize images from text (text-to-image models) offer new possibilities for creatively imagining new ideas. We investigate the capabilities of these models to help communities engage in…
The HCI field has demonstrated a growing interest in leveraging emerging technologies to enrich urban experiences. However, insufficient studies investigate the experience and design space of AI image technology (AIGT) applications for…
Thinking of technology as a design material is appealing. It encourages designers to explore the material's properties to understand its capabilities and limitations, a prerequisite to generative design thinking. However, as a material, AI…
Augmented Reality (AR) is transforming the way we interact with virtual information in the physical world. By overlaying digital content in real-world environments, AR enables new forms of immersive and engaging experiences. However,…
What if digital fabrication waste could observe the world? What would they see? What would they say? "THE WASTIVE" reimagines digital fabrication waste as sentient observers, giving them a poetic voice through interactive art. As viewers…
This pictorial presents an ongoing research programme comprising three practice-based Design Research projects conducted through 2024, exploring the affordances of diffusion-based AI image generation systems, specifically Stable Diffusion.…
Image generation using generative AI is rapidly becoming a major new source of visual media, with billions of AI generated images created using diffusion models such as Stable Diffusion and Midjourney over the last few years. In this paper…
Online platforms are seeing increasing amounts of AI-generated content -- text and other forms of media that are made or co-created with generative AI. This trend suggests platforms may need to establish governance frameworks, including…
More-than-human design challenges anthropocentric assumptions by foregrounding non-human entities as stakeholders, yet designers face an epistemic boundary: they cannot directly access non-human experience. We present an exploratory study…
We present the design and user study of an installation for office workers, enabling moments of temporal diversity and connection to nature. The installation is a form of creative computing experience that departs from the traditional focus…
In Marius von Senden's Space and Sight, a newly sighted blind patient describes the experience of a corner as lemon-like, because corners "prick" sight like lemons prick the tongue. Prickliness, here, is a dimension in the feature space of…
Art created using generated Artificial Intelligence has taken the world by storm and generated excitement for many digital creators and technologists. However, the reception and reaction from artists have been mixed. Concerns about…
