Miles Phillip (PhD) This project explores the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) as an active agent in a process led creative practice. AI generated compositions and motifs will serve as the basis for bespoke musical works that hinge on collaboration between human artist and AI model. Through a process of AI generated content collection, user-led manipulation of materials, and controlled curation of the resulting work, the project will demonstrate the potential of AI as an active tool in the creation of original artworks. The use of generative AI in this practice is borne out of its relevance in the zeitgeist of contemporary culture, the inherent ethical ramifications of its use, and how it can be harnessed as a collaborative extension of human creative output.
