A new Milwaukee exhibit explores that question through sculptures, prints, interactive pieces and poetry, all born from creative collaboration with AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nathaniel Stern teamed up with Sasha Stiles, who has a concurrent solo exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC to develop the exhibit &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/arts\/event\/generation-to-generation-conversing-with-kindred-technologies\/\">Generation to Generation: Conversing with Kindred Technologies.<\/a>&#8221; Stern has degrees in both mechanical engineering and design and is a 51ÁÔÆæ professor of both mechanical engineering and visual art &amp; design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibit invites viewers to consider the relationship and the &#8220;always-evolving dialogue&#8221; between humans and the tools we invent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Overall, we should neither approach with blind optimism nor crippling fear around new technologies,&#8221; Stern said. &#8220;We\u2019re trying to nuance the conversations from a space of real understanding and use.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-p-notice uwm-p-notice--slim\"><i class=\"fa-solid fa-circle-info fa-fw\"><\/i><div class=\"uwm-p-notice--content\"><div class=\"uwm-p-notice--title\">Feb. 12 Opening Day Events, Kenilworth Square East Gallery<\/div><div class=\"uwm-p-notice--message\"><br>11 a.m. \u2013 noon<br>Language as Collaborator: Co-Creating with Thinking Machines &#8211; workshop<br>\u00a0<br>2-3 p.m.<br>Gallery walkthrough<br>\u00a0<br>3-4:30 p.m.<br>Generations and Generativity: Post-AI Aesthetics in Practice -panel discussion<br><br>5-7 p.m.<br>Reception<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-more-than-a-theme\"><strong>More than a theme<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer is both, he said. The exhibit highlights human\u2013technology interaction while also grappling with real concerns \u2013 like the environmental cost of running large AI systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To reduce energy consumption, the artists used AI selectively and with small datasets. For example, they trained their own diffusion model on photos of letters to create a stylized alphabet. Because the model was given minimal data, the results resemble rough, childlike handwriting \u2013 an intentional artifact that underscores the trade-offs between creativity, technology, and resource use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This environmental tension shows up thematically as well. \u201cWe\u2019re balancing matters of technology vs. the environment,\u201d Stern said, noting that pieces like the Mother Computer in the installation, <em>Weighing<\/em>, hint at \u201cMother Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-p-slider\"><div class=\"uwm-p-slider--base\"><figure class=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/537\/2026\/01\/Generation.No3_.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/figure><figure class=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/537\/2026\/01\/Generation.No_.2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/figure><figure class=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/537\/2026\/01\/Generation.No4_.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Not everything in the show was computer-driven. Some components rely on decidedly \u201cold school\u201d methods as a nod to technologies of the past. For <em>Weighing<\/em>, for instance, letters were cast at MetCovery Foundry in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, using recovered industrial waste metal. It continues the conversation around human and technology&#8217;s evolving side by side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-ai-really-original\"><strong>Is AI really original?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another question Stern is often asked to debunk: &#8220;Is this just artwork stitched together from other people\u2019s creations?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The creative process, he said, is intentional and transparent with manipulation of the AI tools in nonstandard ways, to invite strategic possibilities. Viewers can decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the piece <em>The<\/em> <em>E-Waste Land<\/em>, AI is used only to extend Stern\u2019s own experimental imagery, and all training data comes from owned sources. For this, he used Adobe Firefly\u2019s stable diffusion \u2013feeding in fragments of his abstract images and prompting the system to complete them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stiles, meanwhile, works with a large language model that she has fine-tuned on her own contemporary poetry. She treats AI as \u201ca sounding board\u201d \u2013 asking it for multiple sentence variations and iterating those until the results emerge in a way she is happy with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both artists began incorporating AI into their practices long before the current buzz. For example, Stern custom-built the motion-tracking algorithm used in the interactive installation <em>Still Moving<\/em>, predating today\u2019s body-tracking tools such as MediaPipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibit runs Feb. 12-20 at the Kenilworth Square East Gallery. This research was funded by 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s Office of Research. The Milwaukee exhibit was funded by Center for 21st Century Studies and the Lubar Entrepreneurship Center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What happens when artists create with artificial intelligence while also interrogating it?
