Following our curiosity, we artists have misused s ystems, hacked devices, devised unusual algorithms and processes, and expr essed new colors and forms. What motivates our curiosity, and what are the consequences of our efforts? Why obsess over something that no one else s eems to care about, or doesn’t have immediate or practical value? Why do s omething that someone else finds disturbing? Why here and now? Why you? Wh at roles do artists and critics have in shaping the future of computer gra phics and interactive techniques?\n\nJoin us in Tokyo this December as we delve into the complex tapestry of Curious Minds. Explore how technology c an both disrupt and unify, offering new ways to understand and engage with our multifaceted existence and curiosity. Be part of the conversation and connect with the vibrant SIGGRAPH arts community here: Digital Arts Commu nity (DAC) Of SIGGRAPH Asia.\n\nSpeculative Future Imagined Through Satell ite Imageries with Generative AI\n\n“Water City” visualizes a speculative city in 2300 affected by sea level rise, using generative AI.
