Refsgaard, creative coder and 2022-23 visiting artist at the MIT Center for Art, Science & Technology (CAST), explores ways that emerging digital technologies can support artists and content creators in the arts. Refsgaard will demonstrate some of the tools and techniques of machine learning—many of them open-source—that he has used to create his playful, interactive projects.

Andreas Refsgaard is an artist and creative coder based in Copenhagen. Working in the field between art and interaction design, he uses algorithms, coding, and machine learning to explore the creative potentials of emerging digital technologies. In his artistic practice, Refsgaard applies a humorous and cheerful approach to the digital tools and their potential applications, purposes, and values.

Refsgaard’s projects Doodle Toons and Sounds from the Mouth will be on view at Lewis Music Library (14E-109) September 26-December 20, 2022.

Free and open to the public; registration is required. The event will be livestreamed here.
