SUMMARY:Art Talks 2
DESCRIPTION:Art Gallery\n\nArt Gallery Theme: In Unruly Times\n\nAt SIGGRA
 PH Asia 2023, the Art Gallery will showcase works of excellence across the
  fields of art, science, and technology inclusive of data visualisation, 3
 D printing, XR, robotics, AI, sonic, performative, NFT and media/interacti
 ve installation.\n\nUnruly as found in wild, disorderly, experimental, unc
 ontrollable as well as those freefalling out of control anxious moments sp
 anning conflict, climate crisis, pandemics, inequality, surveillance, fina
 ncial and biosystem collapse for instance.\nTimes as in deep time, digital
  time, analogue time, circular, ancestral, mechanical, felt time or as a f
 inite resource. These are times that call for an increasing need for pract
 ices to be sustainable, kinder, agile, and scalable and more inclusive of 
 divergent voices and bodies and experimental unexpected processes.\n\nWe c
 ordially invite you to join us at the SIGGRAPH Asia 2023 Art Gallery in Sy
 dney, Australia as we question, play, and confront the unruly turbulent ti
 mes in which we live!\n\nCome and listen to the artist where they speak ab

 creation. By synthesizing a dataset of 3D trees, it examines the intersect
 ion of machine learning and organic forms using a combination of animation
 , painting and 3D printing.\n\n\nPeter A C Nelson (Hong Kong Baptist Unive
