As AI trawls through the history of human cultural endeavour – mapping and mimicking human artistry – what does it create but outcomes that currently appear hollow? By contrast\, human-made creativity resonates on a different level and as humans\, we can feel the authentic hand of the artist irrespective of how strange the intention is.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook a ticket for the Artist Talk with Nimrod Weiss URL:https://www.yarrilaartsandmuseum.com.au/events/artist-talk-nim-from-eness-modern-guru-and-the-path-to-artificial-happiness CATEGORIES:Program,Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.yarrilaartsandmuseum.com.au/content/uploads/2024/08/eness-modern-guru-eslite_dsc1240_photo-credit_-te-fan-wang_square-min-2-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Australia/Sydney:20240824T100000 DTEND;TZID=Australia/Sydney:20240824T120000 DTSTAMP:20260415T064531 CREATED:20240815T000813Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240815T000815Z UID:10000242-1724493600-1724500800@www.yarrilaartsandmuseum.com.au SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Electric Dreams artists Jason Sims and Brendan Van Hek  DESCRIPTION:Artist Talk with Electric Dreams artists Jason Sims and Brendan Van Hek \n \n \n\nEvent\, Program\, Workshop \n \n Explore\, discover\, and create throughout the summer holidays with a full calendar of FREE programs\, events\, and experiences for young people at Yarrila Arts and Museum and Coffs Harbour Libraries. \n \n \n\n\n\n\nJason Sims\, Structural Nature IV (detail)\, 2023\, photo by Pippy Mount\, image courtesy of the artist and MARS Gallery\, Melbourne  \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n Event\, Program\, Workshop \n \n Wild Summer Holiday Program\n \n When\n \n 20 Dec 2023 – 31 Jan 202410:00 am – 5:00 pm \n \n YAM EventbriteLibrary EventbritePlan your visit \n \n \n\nJoin Electric Dreams artists Jason Sims and Brendan Van Hek for a talk about their art practices and the creation of their contemporary light-based artworks.   \n\n\n\nElectric Dreams is a group exhibition featuring three leading Australian artists working with light – Taree Mackenzie\, Jason Sims and Brendan Van Hek.
