Actress + Young Paint
$432,500. That's how much the first work of art created by an AI program was sold for. Christie's headline read "Is artificial intelligence set to become art’s next medium?" That's the mind-boggling question in Darren Cunningham's head as well. The revolutionary musician and composer has been around for 15 years, creating forward-thinking electronic music under the Actress monicker for labels like Ninja Tune, Nonplus, !K7 and his own Werkdiscs. But it wasn't until 2018 when Cunningham raised the stakes by introducing his digital alter ego, Young Paint, a “learning program” that, according to the artist, writes music alongside him. The uncommon duo perform together; Young Paint resides and creates in video projections and Actress competes and interacts. It's a thing to witness.
