How can we objectively measure the creativity of drawings without relying on human judgment? Could metrics like color variety, stroke complexity, or compositional structure provide an algorithmic approach to evaluating creativity?

I am wondering wether art materials and artmaking has the capacity to hold the silence in Art Therapy interventions. Is it easier to sit in silence with the client when there is the third component of artmaking in the room?

… the idea has been widely accepted that the effectiveness of a sexual relationship must depend primarily upon the skill and the art of the male partner in physically stimulating the female. (Alfred Kinsey)

The Hat

by Nikolay Kryachkov

А hat is unlike any other head-cap because of its rims. But the rims, like wings, may have the air-lift capability. Once you have a hat on your top, you get above other ranks – dog-eared fur caps, all kinds of woven caps, hoods, berets or even casques, to say nothing of bare heads.

On the first floor of the GD stores in St.Petersburg a saleswoman was telling her story about some lecturer in economics who nearly bought a bowler hat at her department. For the moment, there were available only black bowlers. Grey specimens had been sold out. The lecturer was faced with the stark choice of buying the black one. Whether he had a black coat on, with a velvet collar, a walking stick at hand or traveller's bag, the saleswoman didn't tell. Why should he have a traveller's bag? What must be the needs and means of a lecturer in economics? The gold-tipped pen, smartphone and some boring books calling for economic growth. A doctor of medicine, that would make a difference. A stethoscope. A pair of rubber gloves. Galoshes, why not? Galoshes are now ; la mode. And a stick with a silver-plated handle showing a head of some mesozoic monster. A good proof of competence and self-esteem to entice clients, that is patients. Perhaps such were the thoughts of the lecturer. No, hardly ever he bothered himself with traveller bags. His instruments were easily accomodated in his pockets, but a black bowler? No, thus he could be mistaken from afar for Georgui Plekhanov*.

No wish at all to buy a black bowler. Would not match the grey coat, but would make people think him to be a lecturer in economics. Or doctor of medicine. But here is a nice brown hat, not bowler though. With a much wider span of wings. The felt was the colour of bitter chocolate, and the ribbon wasn't of fabric, but a narrow leather strip, the colour of good brandy. It gave the feeling of being in flight above the glittering waters in the Griboyedov Canal, and further still... which meant either Nevsky prospekt nearby, or Sadovaya Street, or even Zvenigorodskaya**...

By the way, once there was an occurrence to visit Zvenigorodskaya in the overcoat with hat. Few were the passengers on the bus, but one old man, slightly tipsy, was amiably surprised. Several times he looked up with interest and then smiled: “Well, if such people are among us, Russia is to remain!” Other people within hearing turned away their smiles into the windows. The former tubing works of Theodor Goesch there attempted a toothless red-brick smile in return, but failed. No benefit of smiles from the writers, either. Too preoccupied with Russia's anxieties, too busy to heed a humble pen mate.

Had it not been for the theatre... At the theatre it turned out much better, quite different. The famous saying about the theatre to begin with the cloak-room is an absolute truth to appear the unavoidable fact. The hat rather gracefully delivered its user to the front of the cloak-room alongside the enchanted faces of the queue. The aged woman servant appeared just as enchanted and she took several seconds to pluck up her wits, then she said, instead of giving a token with number: “You will just come up out of queue and say “The hat!”, your password!”

The absence of a token was embarrassing at first, but was soon forgotten on account of the interest in the play. Afterwords, upon arrival at the cloak-room, it appeared that the password, pronounced distinctly and outside the queue, didn't cause any problem to anybody. People simply admired the hat which carried its lord toward the exit. Just at about one inch above the surface. Such a trifle, but it proved more than enough for the hat owner's stride to look sure and convincing.

Translated from the Russian by Y. Lebedev-Serbe

* А socialist leader, one-time rival of V. Lenin.

** In Zvenigorodskaya St. there is housed the local branch of Russia's Union of Writers.

CREATIVITY AND HUMOR

In his The Act of Creation (1964), Arthur Koestler suggests that there are three types of creativity:

Type I: Artistic Originality:

A work of art is a distortion of reality ranging from dada to realism, as follows:

Dada

Abstract Expressionism

Cubism

Surrealism

Impressionism (Puntilism)

Expressionism

Realism

Camille Saint Saëns’ “Carnival of the Animals”

Ferde Grofé’s “On the Trail” from “Grand Canyon Suite” (Impressionism)

Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” (Expressionism)

Salvador Dali’s art (Surrealism)

Pablo Picasso’s art (Cubism)

Gertrude Stein’s writing (Cubism)

Jackson Pollock’s art (Abstract Expressionism)

Type II: Scientific Discover and Invention:

There are two types of scientific creativity: Discovery, and Invention.

Scientific discovery is epiphanal, and is accompanied by such expressions as

The Bisociative Click!

The Eureka Cry!

The epiphany! or

Das “aha” Erlebniss!

After scientists had discovered the relationships between the moon’s and sun’s gravitation pull, the ocean tides, amber (and static electricity), the lodestones, and the magnet field at the North Pole. They could invent magnets and compasses, AC and DC currents, electro-magnetic engines, etc.

Type III: Comic Inspiration:

But sometimes the bi-association or the incongruity and incongruity resolution, are greater than what is commonly seen in art or in science. This requires a greater suspension of disbelief, because the bi-association is thought to be Incongruous, Incompatible, Ironic, Ludicrous, Paradoxical, Ridiculous, Satiric, or Sardonic.

Examples would include such anachronisms in Science Fiction as the Grandfather’s paradox, where a person goes back in time and kills his own grandfather.

Other examples would be Othello with the hiccups, or a chess player who gives his opponent a double martini.

Fulton’s Folly was still another example of comic inspiration.

When Fulton told the world that he would be able to build a fire that would boil water to make steam to produce the power to make a paddle wheel steam boat paddle upstream, everybody showed up to watch him fail.

They thought that such an attempt was Ludicrous, Ridiculous, or Laughable.

But the audience was wrong. Fulton’s steam boat actually worked. That’s why Arthur Koestler calls this type of creativity “Comic Inspiration.”

art creation in contemporary dance

Dear Colleagues,

Pierre Bourdieu published his text Distinction in 1979. What is your view of this way of assessing culture and culture's self-replication via class?

Please share your thoughts here. All comments are welcome.

Please answer the following questions:

Different creative outlets, from music therapy to body art are known to promote healing for survivors of domestic violence. This can take a more structured form, such as art therapy, which is when a licensed mental health professional works with clients to “use art media, the creative process, and the resulting artwork to explore their feelings, reconcile emotional conflicts, foster self-awareness, manage behavior and addictions, develop social skills, improve reality orientation, reduce anxiety, and increase self-esteem”. Because it has the flexibility to “be molded and designed around each and every individual patient and issue, addressing not only the physical and mental aspects, but reaching deeper into the emotional and spiritual,” art therapy is particularly helpful for survivors of domestic violence. How art therapy can be “an effective tool for expression, personal growth, and recovery from traumatic events and emotional weight and be used to alleviate the physical and psychological effects of domestic violence? ”

I'm doing a Ph.D. in Cinema and my problematic has to do with intermediality. I'm trying to find out who theorized arts / media as languages. As the saying: the language of cinema, or the language of photography... So far, I'm looking at McLuhan's Understanding Media and Roland Barthes' Le système de la mode. I'm not looking for linguistic models of natural languages, like Saussure or C. S. Peirce. I'm looking for theories on: how an art form (or a media) either has, or is a language? Any thoughts?

compensatory mutations. state of the art? new approaches?

Hey! I'm looking to connect with fellow artists interested in multimedia and digital art, especially regarding interactive and immersive experiences. I'd love to hear and chat about projects, tools, research opportunities around the area of interactive installations and immersive virtual worlds!

Anyone? :)

Digital arts and biological art emerged in the post-postmodern era

What are the contemporary schools that emerged but are not known and no research has been published about them?

It is historical research that focuses on the promotion of art music via the radio mass media.

1) A deity neither losses, nor gains, divinity from worship.

2) Wisdom remains even if rejected.

3) Even without audience, profound art stays deep.

I am introducing a workshop/symposium that will take place at the University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy, at the 23rd Scientific Conference of the Society for Gestalt Theory and its Applications, September 25-27 (link: https://www.gtaconference2024.com/). Confirmed speakers are: Liliana Albertazzi, Thiago Costa, Stefano Mastandrea, Alessandro Soranzo and Ian Verstegen. Below is the abstract of the conference.

In his book L’Osteria dei dadi truccati (Loaded Dice Tavern), Massironi (2000) claims that all psychologist interested in art tend to study it from the theoretical perspective that characterizes their work and beliefs. This, of course, is quite normal. The question, however, is whether such a pulverised approach is fruitful in addressing the complexity of Art as a phenomenon.

From another perspective, Zeki, the father of neuroaesthetics, attempted to address relevant questions, such as the very nature of art and why it is so significant to us. According to Zeki, the only way to properly address those important issues is through a neuroscientific approach. However, considering what we know and still don’t know about how the brain processes art, are we sure to be on the path to find the answers we are seeking?

There is of course a third path, experimental aesthetics, the goal of which is to study the aesthetic experience. The question one might want to ask is whether all aesthetic experiences are related to art, or even whether the enjoyment of an artwork is always reducible to an aesthetic experience (could there be more than mere preferences and the appraisal of beauty, harmony, etc.?). Finally, would it make sense to combine all possible approaches? Would this allow to achieve a proper science of art? Is this even feasible from an epistemological perspective?

The goal of this workshop is to shine a little light upon these topics and to prepare the basis for future meetings, the topics of which would revolve around the feasibility of a science of art and, eventually, its goals, perspectives and methods.

"Good music is good music, no matter the genre," says B. B. King, the famous Mississippi-born blues musician (1925-2015); A magnificent quote that beautifully puts into words the sentiment that transcends the boundaries of musical categorization; Regardless of the style or genre. As for Blues, B. B. King specifies "Blues is about embracing your pain and turning it into something beautiful." This poignant quote encapsulates the essence of blues music, shedding light on its transformative power. While pain often feels unbearable, the blues offers solace in embracing these struggles and allowing them to shape something beautiful. By channeling their anguish into music, blues musicians pour their emotions into melodies and heartfelt lyrics. In doing so, they not only release their own pain but also resonate with audiences who find solace in relating to the experiences shared. B.B. King's words remind us of the profound ability of blues music to provide catharsis, healing, and ultimately, the creation of something extraordinary from the depths of pain.

Suggestion of free APF Journal for Art & Design please?

i need a journal that takes maximum 2 months to publish . Q1 or Q2

Is there an art of rhetoric in narration?

CONTEXT: Achieving the 2030 UN agenda for SDGs requires integrated, citizen-centric approaches and holistic interventions for delivering transformative results on the social, economic, and environmental dimensions. Current initiatives in many emerging markets are slow and face adoption and scalability challenges at a local and systemic level due to lack of in-depth understanding and prioritization of complex issues, many of which relate to each other, like the SDGs. A good starting point is to take a human-centric approach starting with developing deeper empathy with citizens to visualize and design a future for the citizens of the country. But who better to share authentic insights and see a better future than those who will live it – CHILDREN.

Within many cultural contexts it is recognized that drawing techniques can provide a relatively easy way to gather personal and socio-cultural information, both from and about children, as well as offer valuable insights into children’s experiences, ideas, feelings and environmental perceptions. Childhood and children are now seen as worthy of investigation in their own right. Much recent studies has emphasized the importance of listening to children’s perspectives on issues that are important and relevant for them. The advantage of using drawing is that this is self-reported data.

These drawings can be used to explore the world they live in, and therefore understand the social, economic and environmental issues at the local level. Art activities provide a psychologically safe and creative way for children to express their strongest desires in a visual form without relying on words or the need to know a language for expression.

ASK: I am looking to conduct a literature review on visualization, image interpretation and content analysis techniques for issue identification in the drawings and artworks of children. In addition, I am, therefore, seeking projects are worthy of mention based on their quality of work and potential to scale in the aforementioned areas. A good example is Room 13 that started in Scotland and Project Dream On India - that captured 10,000+ artworks of children from pan India including Jammu and Kashmir.

Would appreciate your references, thoughts, ideas et al.

Thanking you in anticipation.

In recent years, more and more perfect robots equipped with artificial intelligence have been developed. New generations of artificial intelligence and/or machine learning technologies, when equipped with software that enables the creation of unique works, new creations, creative solutions, etc., can create a kind of artwork in the chosen field of creativity and artistry. If we connect a 3D printer to a robot equipped with an artificial intelligence system that is capable of designing and producing beautiful sculptures, can we thus obtain a kind of work of art?

When a robot equipped with an artificial intelligence system paints beautiful pictures, can the resulting works be considered fully artistic works of art?

If NO, why not?

And if YES, then who is the artist of the works of art created in this way, is it a robot equipped with artificial intelligence that creates them or a human being who created this artificial intelligence and programmed it accordingly?

What is your opinion on this topic?

What do you think about this topic?

Please reply,

I invite you all to discuss,

Thank you very much,

Best regards,

Dariusz Prokopowicz

Re typification of a plant genus if only a single species is/was contained in that genus (ICN Art. 40.3): Is that mode of designation "by original designation" or "by monotypy"? I am not sure whether the concept of typification by monotypy exists in botany (glossary has zero hits on "monotypy").

Even if typification by monotypy is not explicitly stated in ICN/Thurland, is it used in systematic botany? Or is this another distinction between ICN-Botany and ICZN-Zoology?

Please note, that the question is not the description of a genus with a single species (monotypic genus), but the mode of typification.

Thanks!

We used to have some project that discussed these interesting topics. I hope some of you will start this discussion going from your own perspective. How does art connect with science? My husband works in science and I am definitely one of those "mind wanderers" who get so easily distracted because in art we think associatively.

I almost daily have to think why I don't mind how my mind works. What are your thoughts in these two very different styles of cognitive activity?

Art of Abstraction of Unified Word and its Concepts (Views, Masks, and Instances): Introduction We discovered over 50 discoveries, 300 innovations, and 100 cognitive knowledge, which generated over 450 questions per unified word to be answered. Every field of Knowledge depends on ABSTRACTIONS. Unfortunately, current abstractors could be doing better regarding the abstraction process and the type of abstractions because they are based mainly on tangibility and ignore other more essential conceptions. Fayad's Art of Abstraction (FAA) supports abstracting over 50 discoveries per word (Noun and noun phrase), 300 innovations, the generation of more than 100 cognitive knowledge, and Great value to the natural languages. The FAA can be used in both application and system developments. As a unique system, every word has more than 50 discoveries, including functional requirements, special non-functional requirements, stable and Unified design, contexts, challenges, constraints, applicability, measurability, and more. FAA led to unified, stable discoveries and included unlimited advantages. 1. Understand and appreciate our natural languages 2. The future of technology depends on these discoveries. 3. Unification of unified domain or unified word analysis of any field of Knowledge 4. Know how to generate stable and unified requirements and the ultimate design of any system. 5. Knowledge Unification 7. Limit and control maintenance problems 8. Explore and create a massive number of new systems 9. Generate better methodologies for developing unified and stable systems 10. Stop reinventing the wheels 11. Develop and executable self-manageable, self-adaptable, self, extendable, and self-configurable systems with unlimited applicability, reuse, and many more.

I am Writing an article on "Mandal Art". I am not able to find literature. Please help me by providing articles on "Mandal Art".

I'm trying to develop a paper concerning the use of ART in HIV positive and negative pregnant women and how that has effected fetal development.

“Equation dooms the universe to chaos” (“Science Illustrated” – Issue #104, pp.80-81) states,

“A physicist would describe entropy as a measure of how much energy is spread between the molecules of a closed system (say, a gold ingot).”

And “… all molecules in the universe will, according to current theory, end up in one big lukewarm mess (in 10^26 years).”

The article illustrates this with the formula Δ S ≥ 0 (change of entropy is bigger than, or equal to, zero).

This is one possible formula. Another is Δ S = 0 (change of entropy equals zero). This alternative is possible because the universe may not be a closed system. In general, most physicists today have faith that a successful theory of Quantum Gravity will be found someday. Such a Theory of Everything would reconcile two theories that are in apparent conflict – our best explanation of the microscopic world (Quantum Mechanics) and the best description we have of gravity (General Relativity).

The molecules in a gold ingot are connected in what appears to be a closed system. Quantum Gravity might conceivably connect all the molecules existing in space-time … in the universe as well as every period of time. But the universe could not be considered a closed system if it’s literally infinite and eternal. Throughout history, and including the present, speculation that the cosmos is infinite and eternal has never gone away. Despite the claim that the universe is finite and began at a definite point in linear time, knowledge of its origin is uncertain (the James Webb Space Telescope could make even the most dedicated proponent of the Big Bang doubtful at some point). We all have our theories and convictions but I believe it’s best to never say our deepest convictions can’t be incorrect.

If the cosmos is not a closed system, the heat produced by each of its seemingly closed systems wouldn’t simply be wasted. The energy created by the entropic 2nd Law of Thermodynamics would be diverted into the 1st Law of Thermodynamics i.e. the total mass-energy in the universe would forever remain constant, with mass and energy being converted into one another. It might be said that although no component of the universe can display the perpetual motion of existing forever, it’s plausible to regard the entire universe (entirety of spacetime) as in perpetual motion.

ICLACE 2024 is to bring together innovative academics and industrial experts in the field of Language, Art and Culture to a common forum. The primary goal of the conference is to promote research and developmental activities in Language, Art and Culture and another goal is to promote scientific information interchange between researchers, developers, engineers, students, and practitioners working all around the world.

The conference will be held every year to make it an ideal platform for people to share views and experiences in Language, Art and Culture and related areas. We warmly invite you to participate in ICLACE2024 and look forward to seeing you in Bangkok, Thailand!

What are the applications of AI in Art and Creative subjects

Art x Mental Health

Dear fellow researchers,

Art has always been a way of expression for me. It has calmed my inner turbulence and helped me to make better decisions. Let's talk about how picking up a paintbrush, dancing to your favorite song, or simply doodling can make a real difference in how we feel.

Consider the various ways in which art serves as a medium for emotional expression and processing. Reflect on the role of symbolism, metaphor, and abstraction in conveying deeply felt emotions. Share anecdotes, research findings, or theoretical perspectives that shed light on the therapeutic potential of art in this regard.

Your unique insights and experiences are invaluable contributions to this conversation.

Philosophic concepts about arts are so complex and mysterious ! Of course I don't mean mostly postmodern type almost absolutely meaningless works claimed as arts by the ones who have done it for his/her ordinary followers !

we have many plastic art works belongs to many artistic persons so we want active way to take represintative sample to choose to analysis from many variable plsstic art works

Clarification about

The role of art in politics

This question is significant because abstract art, as a form of non-representational art, challenges our traditional notions of art and its relationship to reality. By exploring the ways in which art can shape our perceptions and understanding of the world, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the power of art to influence our cognitive processes and our relationship with reality. Furthermore, understanding the importance and trending of non-representational art in real life can provide insights into the current state of the art world and the cultural values of our society. By examining the ways in which non-representational art is being used in various contexts, such as in advertising, fashion, and interior design, we can gain a better understanding of the role that art plays in shaping our cultural identity and influencing our daily lives.

The real question is whether information technology destroys quality art. Good theatrical performances and good musicians arrive to my small town rather often; there is a nice theatre here (constructed for various purposes). But people do not attend such events anymore. People play with their mobile devices; they take pictures of themselves (and post them on the internet), and they all feel like artists. But it is sad to see an orchestra of excellent young musicians, playing in front of a nearly empty hall. Have we all become artists, so that we do not need any other artists; or have we become zombies, uncapable of receiving any real art?

Dear colleagues,

A research team is conducting a study to evaluate emotions that have been automatically generated by using GANS, through a small survey. The survey presents 20 works of art in four different versions, each aimed at evoking one of the following emotions: amusement, delight, dread, and melancholy.

Your opinion is highly valued. Kindly access the form provided via the link and indicate the emotion you perceive each one of the 20 works of art to evoke. We suggest increasing the screen brightness to have a better view of the images.

Thank you for participating in this research. Your responses will be greatly appreciated. Feel free to share with your contacts.

The term ‘aesthetics’ derives from the ancient Greek word aisthesis, which is translated as ‘perception’ or ‘sensation’. But what does aesthetics mean today? And what is the difference between aesthetics and philosophy of art?

What characterizes a novel concept? How do innovative ideas manifest in the domains of science, art, and politics? How do new ideas come about in science and art? In what ways do new ideas in science and art differ from each other?

Is it possible to describe the foundations of aesthetic criticism of plastic works of art?

AI is no longer the future, it’s the present, what are your experiences?

CREATIVITY AND HUMOR

In his The Act of Creation (1964), Arthur Koestler suggests that there are three types of creativity:

Type I: Artistic Originality:

A work of art is a distortion of reality ranging from dada to realism, as follows:

Dada

Abstract Expressionism

Cubism

Surrealism

Impressionism (Puntilism)

Expressionism

Realism

Camille Saint Saëns’ “Carnival of the Animals”

Ferde Grofé’s “On the Trail” from “Grand Canyon Suite” (Impressionism)

Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” (Expressionism)

Salvador Dali’s art (Surrealism)

Pablo Picasso’s art (Cubism)

Gertrude Stein’s writing (Cubism)

Jackson Pollock’s art (Abstract Expressionism)

Type II: Scientific Discover and Invention:

There are two types of scientific creativity: Discovery, and Invention.

Scientific discovery is epiphanal, and is accompanied by such expressions as

The Bisociative Click!

The Eureka Cry!

The epiphany! or

Das “aha” Erlebniss!

After scientists had discovered the relationships between the moon’s and sun’s gravitation pull, the ocean tides, amber (and static electricity), the lodestones, and the magnet field at the North Pole. They could invent magnets and compasses, AC and DC currents, electro-magnetic engines, etc.

Type III: Comic Inspiration:

But sometimes the bi-association or the incongruity and incongruity resolution, are greater than what is commonly seen in art or in science. This requires a greater suspension of disbelief, because the bi-association is thought to be Incongruous, Incompatible, Ironic, Ludicrous, Paradoxical, Ridiculous, Satiric, or Sardonic.

Examples would include such anachronisms in Science Fiction as the Grandfather’s paradox, where a person goes back in time and kills his own grandfather.

Other examples would be Othello with the hiccups, or a chess player who gives his opponent a double martini.

Fulton’s Folly was still another example of comic inspiration.

When Fulton told the world that he would be able to build a fire that would boil water to make steam to produce the power to make a paddle wheel steam boat paddle upstream, everybody showed up to watch him fail.

They thought that such an attempt was Ludicrous, Ridiculous, or Laughable.

But the audience was wrong. Fulton’s steam boat actually worked. That’s why Arthur Koestler calls this type of creativity “Comic Inspiration.”

The 45,000-Year-Old Pig Painting in Indonesia may be the oldest known "Art" representation [1]. “Art” embodies the idea of imagination and creativity, “Science” refers to innovation and progress. This gives intuition that "Science" is bounded, unlike "Art" which is limitless. The same goes for philosophy, except this one integrates a desire to ask questions, understand, argue, and respond to material and immaterial issues that concern humans, their lives, and their environment. All contributions on the topic are welcome!

I am thinking of uploading my preprint manuscript of my Chapter in just-published Yukio Adachi and Makoto Usami (eds.), Governance for a Sustainable Future: The State of the Art in Japan (Springer, 2023), on my ResearchGate page, but I have no idea how to link ResearchgGate to Springer book site.

I'm writing my dissertation on the visual aspeacts of the 80s Memphis Design Movement and I'd love to know any information anyopne has or any opinions on said movement from those who lived thought it.

How to create a system of digital, universal labelling of different types of works, texts, texts, photos, publications, graphics, videos, innovations, patents, etc. performed by artificial intelligence and not by humans, i.e. works whose legal, ethical, moral, business, security qualification .... etc. should be different for what is the product of artificial intelligence?

Two days earlier, in an earlier post, I started a discussion on the question of the necessity of improving the security of the development of artificial intelligence technology and asked the following questions: how should the system of institutional control of the development of advanced artificial intelligence models and algorithms be structured, so that this development does not get out of control and lead to negative consequences that are currently difficult to foresee? Should the development of artificial intelligence be subject to control? And if so, who should exercise this control? How should an institutional system for controlling the development of artificial intelligence applications be built? Why are the creators of leading technology companies developing ICT, Internet technologies, Industry 4.0, including those developing artificial intelligence technologies, etc. now calling for the development of this technology to be periodically, deliberately slowed down, so that the development of artificial intelligence technology is fully under control and does not get out of hand? On the other hand, while continuing my reflections on the indispensability of improving the security of the development of artificial intelligence technology, analysing the potential risks of the dynamic and uncontrolled development of this technology, I hereby propose to continue my deliberations on this issue and invite you to participate in a discussion aimed at identifying the key determinants of building an institutional control system for the development of artificial intelligence, including the development of advanced models composed of algorithms similar or more advanced to the ChatGPT 4.0 system developed by the OpenAI company and available on the Internet. It is necessary to normatively regulate a number of issues related to artificial intelligence, both the issue of developing advanced models composed of algorithms that form artificial intelligence systems; posting these technological solutions in open access on the Internet; enabling these systems to carry out the process of self-improvement through automated learning of new content, knowledge, information, abilities, etc.; building an institutional system of control over the development of artificial intelligence technology and current and future applications of this technology in various fields of activity of people, companies, enterprises, institutions, etc. operating in different sectors of the economy. Recently, realistic-looking photos of well-known, highly recognisable people, including politicians, presidents of states in unusual situations, which were created by artificial intelligence, have appeared on the Internet on online social media sites. What has already appeared on the Internet as a kind of 'free creativity' of artificial intelligence, creativity both in terms of the creation of 'fictitious facts' in descriptions of events that never happened, in descriptions created as an answer to a question posed for the ChatGPT system, and in terms of photographs of 'fictitious events', already indicates the potentially enormous scale of disinformation currently developing on the Internet, and this is thanks to the artificial intelligence systems whose products of 'free creativity' find their way onto the Internet. With the help of artificial intelligence, in addition to texts containing descriptions of 'fictitious facts', photographs depicting 'fictitious events', it is also possible to create films depicting 'fictitious events' in cinematic terms. All of these creations of 'free creation' by artificial intelligence can be posted on social media and, in the formula of viral marketing, can spread rapidly on the Internet and can thus be a source of serious disinformation realised potentially on a large scale. Dangerous opportunities have therefore arisen for the use of technology to generate disinformation about, for example, a competitor company, enterprise, institution, organisation or individual. Within the framework of building an institutional control system for the development of artificial intelligence technology, it is necessary to take into account the issue of creating a digital, universal marking system for the various types of works, texts, photos, publications, graphics, films, innovations, patents, etc. performed by artificial intelligence and not by humans, i.e. works whose legal, ethical, moral, business, security qualification ..., should be different for what is the product of artificial intelligence. It is therefore necessary to create a system of digital, universal labelling of the various types of works, texts, photos, publications, graphics, videos, etc., made by artificial intelligence and not by humans. The only issue for discussion is therefore how this should be done.

In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:

What do you think about this topic?

What is your opinion on this subject?

Please respond,

I invite you all to discuss,

Thank you very much,

Best regards,

Is merely combining art and technology equate creativity?

The idea that artworks (music, painting, performance, sculpture) can be art as generators of solidarity is not new but deserves more investigation. How can artworks be used to generate genuine solidarity? What concepts operate in this phenomenon?

All suggestions are welcome! :-)

How has the courts interpreted the OAU and the African Charter in relation to application of the non-refoulement principle in cases involving terrorists? Is the principle held to be absolute like the ECHR (art 3) or is it not? can anyone help me with these questions

Let us discuss - what is your view on management, is it an art or a science ? What are your arguments for the position you have taken?

In a bustling city, Sarah, a young artist, decides to paint a mural on a blank wall in her neighborhood. The mural depicts scenes of unity, diversity, and hope, intending to inspire a sense of community among the residents. At first glance, it may seem like just another artwork in a city full of vibrant street art, but little does Sarah know that her small action is about to set off a ripple effect that will transform the entire neighborhood.

One morning, a curious journalist named Emma stumbles upon the mural during her daily walk. Intrigued by the beauty and message behind the artwork, Emma decides to write an article about it, hoping to shine a light on the positive impact of public art in urban spaces. The article gains traction quickly and is shared widely across social media platforms, attracting the attention of city officials and community leaders.

Impressed by the impact of Sarah's mural, the city council decides to launch an initiative to promote public art throughout the city. They allocate funds for local artists to create more murals and sculptures in various neighborhoods, aiming to beautify the city and foster a sense of pride and unity among its residents.

As the city becomes an open canvas for creativity, a newfound sense of community emerges. People from diverse backgrounds come together to celebrate the artworks, organizing art walks and community events. Businesses in the neighborhood notice an increase in foot traffic, leading to economic growth in the area.

Inspired by the success of the art initiative, local schools integrate art education into their curriculum, nurturing the creativity of young minds. Sarah's mural becomes a symbol of hope and empowerment, motivating the next generation to pursue their dreams and make a positive impact on their communities.

In an unexpected turn of events, Sarah's mural also catches the eye of a prominent art gallery owner. Impressed by her talent and the impact of her work, the gallery owner offers Sarah an opportunity to showcase her art in a solo exhibition. Sarah's career takes off, and her artwork gains international recognition, drawing attention to the importance of public art in transforming communities.

As the years pass, Sarah's mural stands tall as a symbol of the power of small actions. The once overlooked blank wall has become a landmark, attracting tourists and art enthusiasts from all over the world. The ripple effect of her small action has not only transformed her neighborhood but has also ignited a citywide movement celebrating the role of art in creating positive change.

In this narrative, Sarah's decision to paint a mural exemplifies how a single small action can lead to a chain reaction of positive changes, creating a significant impact on the community, city, and even the art world at large. It showcases the potential power that lies within each individual to make a difference, no matter how small their actions may seem.

Every field of Knowledge depends on ABSTRACTIONS. Unfortunately, current Abstractors could be doing better on the abstraction process and the type of abstractions because it is based mainly on tangibility and ignores other more essential conceptions.

Fayad's Art of Abstraction (FAA) shows how to abstract over 50 innovative keys per concept (Noun and Noun Phrase) within the natural language dictionary. These Innovative Keys require more than 200 FAA techniques or algorithms, where FAA techniques will be shown per each innovative key and done once per concept, avoiding reinventing the wheels.

The FAA will be used and utilized in both application and system developments. As a unique system, every concept has more than 50 discoveries, including functional requirements, special non-functional requirements, stable and Unified design, contexts, challenges, constraints, applicability, measure-ability, and more.

FAA led to unified, stable discoveries and included unlimited advantages (that will be addressed in many different publications, videos, books, panels, discussion groups, courses, training, and others).

1. Understand and appreciate our natural languages --

2. The future of technology depends on these discoveries.

3. Unification of domain analysis of any field of Knowledge

4. Know how to generate stable and unified requirements and the ultimate design of any system.

5. Knowledge Unification

7. Limit and control maintenance problems

8. Explore and create a massive number of new systems

9. Generate better methodologies for developing unified and stable systems

10. Stop reinventing the wheels

11. Develop and executable self-manageable, self-adaptable, self, extendable, and self-configurable systems with unlimited applicability and reuse.

Because it is difficult to define SUSTAINABILITY in scientific sense. I believe it is an art that when practised and fine tuned more will give better results. E.g. Art of singing when practised to perfection will lead to a sustainable singer.
