Creative AI 

This lecture explores how media art, including artificial intelligence, reconfigures creativity and critical thinking in the post-digital condition.

Drawing from Prof. Jinjoon Lee’s interdisciplinary art practice, it positions media art as a space where philosophical reflection, sensory perception, and technological systems converge, generating new aesthetic and conceptual possibilities.The talk introduces the TX Lab and the KAIST Art & Technology Center, both led by Lee, where doctoral-level research bridges art, science, and the humanities through experimental and critical approaches.
