Esmeralda Conde Ruiz: 24/7 Big Data
Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden (ed.)
In 2022/23, Spanish artist and composer Esmeralda Conde Ruiz (*1981, lives in London) explored artificial intelligence and sound as part of the Schaufler Residency@TU Dresden. The installative and performative works created during her research fellowship at the TUD focus on people and their data, which echo in the data centers with their very own sound. "24/7 Big Data" provides an insight into her works presented at HELLERAU - European Center for the Arts and at SCHAUWERK Sindelfingen.

Anton Ginzburg: Dresden Modular
Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden (ed.)
In 2021, artist Anton Ginzburg (born 1974 in St. Petersburg, lives in New York) explored concepts of creativity and cultural work in a historical context as part of the Schaufler Residency@TU Dresden, with artificial intelligence (AI) primarily functioning as an overarching social narrative between utopia and disruption. His works are thus animated by the spirit of machine participation, which is also increasingly inscribing itself into the processes of its organization in the public sphere and changing them.

Christian Kosmas Mayer: Voice without Breath
Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden (ed.)
"Voice without Breath" is the accompanying artist book to Christian Kosmas Mayer's (*1976 in Sigmaringen, lives and works in Vienna) residency at the Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden 2020/21. The comprehensive documentation is supplemented by three essays that shed light on different facets of Mayer's artistic practice. Rosi Braidotti examines how Mayer's art reflects the cycles of life and death, the agency of material things and the interdependencies between species in the sense of "elementary materialism". Michael Klipphahn-Karge analyzes the philosophical dimensions of Mayer's practice and shows how traditional dichotomies are rethought through the perspectives of new materialism and animism. Abou Farman chooses a radical approach by deliberately refraining from superimposing the voice in the work "Maa Kheru" with his own in order to allow its resonance to have an immediate effect.

Queer AI. On the coming out of smart machines
Michael Klipphahn-Karge / Ann-Kathrin Koster / Sara Morais dos Santos Bruss (eds.)
Common forms of discrimination and the reproduction of normative stereotypes are also commonplace in artificial intelligence. The contributors explain ways of reducing these flawed practices and negotiate the ambivalent relationship between queerness and AI from an interdisciplinary perspective. At the same time, they give space to a queer-feminist understanding of knowledge that always sees itself as particular, ambiguous and incomplete. In this way, they open up possibilities for dealing with AI that can transcend reductive categorizations.
This volume summarizes the contributions and results of the symposium "Queer AI. On the Coming Out of Smart Machines", which took place in June 2021.
Authors: inside: Blair Attard-Frost, Johannes Bruder, Valérie Félix, Kris Vera Hartmann, Carsten Junker, Ute Kalender, Michael Klipphahn-Karge, Katrin Köppert, Ann-Kathrin Koster, Ann-Kristin Kühnen, Malin Kuht, Sara Morais dos Santos Bruss, Emilia Sladek and Natalie Sontopski.

AI Realities. Models, practices and topologies of machine learning
Richard Groß / Rita Jordan (eds.)
AI Realities brings together perspectives from the humanities, social sciences and philosophy on current applications of machine learning. The contributions in this volume discuss these as phenomena that cause epistemic uncertainties. They reconfigure the conditions of sociality - and often resist all too quick attempts at understanding. In view of this challenge, the essays develop new concepts of machine learning as a logical object of research in its own right. Central to this are analyses of concrete manifestations of the processes in their socio-technical embedding as well as critical reflection on existing characterizations of AI.
Authors: AA Cavia & Patricia Reed, Katharina Zweig & Jan-Georg Schneider and Fabian Offert et al.
The volume summarizes the contributions and results of the first annual conference of the research group "Artificial Intelligence as a Concept in the Humanities & Social Sciences", which took place in December 2021.
