Art and Technology

Written by Lim Jiyoon G8

Art and technology look very different, but now they are working together. Long ago, people thought art was about feelings and ideas, and technology was about science and math. Now, they can make new things together.

In art, there are AI artists. AI can learn from many paintings and make new ones. People can add stories or change them to be more perfect. In VR, people can go inside the paintings. It is called “participating art” because you can join the painting, not just watch.

In music, AI can make songs too. For example, AI can learn Beethoven’s style and make a new song. People can mix it with their own ideas to make more interesting music

Movies and cartoons are similar. Without CG, many cool scenes cannot be made. AI can help edit movies, making it faster and more creative. Fashion also meets technology. Clothes from 3D printers or smart clothes that react to light and heat are like “moving art” that was hard to imagine before.

Schools are following this with STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math). Students can make art with digital tools. They learn technology and use their creativity. AI can even give feedback in music or art class, so students can try new ideas easily.

Art and technology help each other. Art without technology has limits. Technology without art has no feelings. When they work together, they can make a more exciting future.
