A is for Algorithm
An algorithm is a step-by-step list of instructions that need to be followed to solve a problem. Systems music and algorithmic composition use such sets of instructions to make music with minimal human intervention.
A is also for the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence
The AAAI is a nonprofit scientific society that promotes research in, and responsible use of, artificial intelligence. Their website contains lots of resources including on using Artificial Intelligence in creative works of art.
If a robot is programmed to draw a portrait is that art?

In June, Hamish and Martine gave a movement workshop to library staff at University College London as part of their Staff Conference day.
Participants were invited to move through the space in simple but less usual ways, and used guided improvisation games to enhance their awareness of one another.
We received very positive feedback from this session!
“Great fun. Invigorating, playful. Would do it again and recommend it to others”.
“Brilliant! I didn’t quite know what to expect but I’m glad I stayed. It was great fun, very enjoyable and I feel energised”.
We’re really excited about some performances and workshops we’ve got coming up, starting with Space is the Place, a movement workshop we’re running at University College London. In the autumn we’re doing a workshop and performance at The Science Museum’s Dana Centre as part of their season on Artificial Intelligence, and we’re also lucky enough to be performing at Chisenhale Dance Space in a night curated by Agony Art.
More news to follow but on the subject of Artificial Intelligence take a look at this: is this really dancing?
