This is a co-produced cross-curricular artwork made in response to the climate and ecology crisis, created by Jaime Jackson and over 200 Key Stage 2 pupils in Cannock Chase for an Arts Council England commission and the Great Imagining Cannock Chase. The pupils created a data set of images for the artwork from drawing the lines on their hands, which were then used to make a machine learning generated artwork. Based on the inter connectivity found in nature through the ‘wood wide web’ of a mutually symbiotic system across species, our conversations led by the view that we are nature.
Degeneration Becomes Beginining – co produced moving image, drawing and machine learning.
Jaime was commissioned by Be Fantastic to produce an AI generated artwork installation with a team of artists for a British Council commission for the Future Fantastic AI and Climate change festival in Banglore 2023. I developed an idea to work with plankton and organised a series of conversations for the team with ocean scientists from the Plymouth Marine Lab and the University of Liverpool.
