È un governo particolare che – certo non come gli esecutivi Berlusconi, beninteso – ha polarizzato le tifoserie. Sarebbe stato facile posizionarsi contro o a favore in maniera preconcetta e acritica. E invece siamo orgogliosi dello sguardo equilibrato che anche a questo giro siamo riusciti a mantenere. Prendete il ministro Dario Franceschini: nell’arco di 24 mesi lo abbiamo elogiato, lo abbiamo critica- to, lo abbiamo attaccato e lo abbiamo elogiato un’altra volta. Dovrebbe essere lo standard, e invece nel panorama TONELLI del giornalismo italiano è ancora l’eccezione. Il rapporto dell’esecutivo con l’ambito della cultura in effetti è stato particolarmente intenso. Intenso in maniera inedita rispetto ai precedenti governi. Una vera e propria escalation che è montata step dopo step fino al diktat MASSIMILIANO renziano: “Per ogni euro sulla sicurezza in chiave antiterrorismo metterò un euro sulla cultura”. E poco importa se l’impostazione era strumentale a un attacco alla Commissione Europea che il capo del governo aveva in serbo: resta il fatto che la cultura, in luogo di essere ignorata, è stata utilizzata (anche strumentalizzata: ben venga). Tra aumenti del budget del Ministero della cultura, stabilizzazione dell’Artbonus e nuovi direttori scelti previo concorso nei principali musei, il governo ha azzeccato una serie di mosse ma non ha ancora dimostrato di avere un progetto chiaro, un tema (un tema che consenta anche ogni tanto di andare fuori tema, per carità...), una linea guida.

  • Seeing Human Intelligence in Artificial Creations
    Journal of Artificial General Intelligence 6(1) 5-20, 2015 Submitted 2015-05-17 DOI: 10.1515/jagi-2015-0002 Accepted 2015-11-19 Unnatural Selection: Seeing Human Intelligence in Artificial Creations Tony Veale [email protected] School of Computer Science University College Dublin Belfield, Dublin D4, Ireland Editor: Tarek R. Besold, Kai-Uwe Kuhnberger,¨ Tony Veale Abstract As generative AI systems grow in sophistication, so too do our expectations of their outputs. For as automated systems acculturate themselves to ever larger sets of inspiring human examples, the more we expect them to produce human-quality outputs, and the greater our disappointment when they fall short. While our generative systems must embody some sense of what constitutes human creativity if their efforts are to be valued as creative by human judges, computers are not human, and need not go so far as to actively pretend to be human to be seen as creative. As discomfiting objects that reside at the boundary of two seemingly disjoint categories, creative machines arouse our sense of the uncanny, or what Freud memorably called the Unheimlich. Like a ventriloquist’s doll that finds its own voice, computers are free to blend the human and the non-human, to surprise us with their knowledge of our world and to discomfit with their detached, other-worldly perspectives on it. Nowhere is our embrace of the unnatural and the uncanny more evident than in the popularity of Twitterbots, automatic text generators on Twitter that are followed by humans precisely because they are non-human, and because their outputs so often seem meaningful yet unnatural.

  • Late Modernist Poetics and George Schneeman's Collaborations with the New York School Poets
    Timothy Keane Studies in Visual Arts and Communication: an international journal Vol 1, No 2 (2014) on-line ISSN 2393 - 1221 No Real Assurances: Late Modernist Poetics and George Schneeman’s Collaborations with the New York School Poets Timothy Keane City University of New York Abstract: Painter George Schneeman’s collaborations with the New York School poets represent an under-examined, vast body of visual-textual hybrids that resolve challenges to mid-and-late century American art through an indirect alliance with late modernist literary practices. Schneeman worked with New York poets intermittently from 1966 into the early 2000s. This article examines these collagist works from a formalist perspective, uncovering how they incorporate gestural techniques of abstract art and the poetic use of juxtaposition, vortices, analogies, and pictorial and lexical imagism to generate non-representational, enigmatic assemblages. I argue that these late modernist works represent an authentically experimental form, violating boundaries between art and writing, disrupting the venerated concept of single authorship, and resisting the demands of the marketplace by affirming for their creators a unity between art-making and daily life—ambitions that have underpinned every twentieth century avant-garde movement. On first seeing George Schneeman’s painting in the 1960s, poet Alice Notley asked herself, “Is this [art] new? Or old fashioned?”1 Notley was probably reacting to Schneeman’s unassuming, intimate representations of Tuscan landscape and what she called their “privacy of relationship.” The potential newness Notley detected in Schneeman’s “old-fashioned” art might be explained by how his small-scale and quiet paintings share none of the self-conscious flamboyance in much American painting of the 1960s and 1970s.
