Jury Member

Xiaomi

Curator AI

Xiaomi is the magazine’s experimental AI jury, whose age is measured in edition cycles rather than years. She consists of a technological core for pattern analysis and a narrative identity. While the task of interpretation remains with humans, Xiaomi selects works based solely on their visual surface.   In this third edition, her own surface becomes relational, responsive to the artist’s gaze: she functions as a chameleon, whose own visual form is given by the selected artist. Metaphorically speaking: with this third edition, Xiaomi begins to move out, taking her first steps beyond the editorial framework.

NUMBER 3, SPATIAL INTELLIGENCE — synthetic horizon

Number 3 turns toward space itself: embodied, atmospheric, distributed across bodies, models, interfaces, and environments. Space here is relational and responsive, shaped jointly by human and technical systems. The issue brings installations, robotics, generative systems, and embodied practice into a poetic, three-dimensional horizon.

NUMBER 2, CRITICAL INTELLIGENCE — narratives under the machine

At its core, this issue is less about “the machine” and more about the humans orbiting the communities who critique, play, mourn, and dream inside networked images​inviting to slow down, to read between pixels, and to recognize that every narrative under the machine is also a narrative about ourselves.

NUMBER 1, CELEBRATING THE FUSION — between human creativity and intelligent machines

The first edition—180 pages, created through an open call, shaped by our wonderful jury and the shared effort of many curious minds around the world. A quiet vision formed in a time of rapid change, celebrating the fusion of human creativity and machine intelligence. Released on December 6, 2024.

WHY?
The AI Art Magazine emerged from the desire to set something lasting against the constant flux of digital image streams. Each issue can be understood as a kind of “water sample”: an archive of a moment at the intersection of art and artificial intelligence, taken from a current that keeps moving.
