What is artistic intelligence?

September 17, 2019By Helen YungIn Art, Perspectives, Reports & Publications

We’ve only just started using our new name, the Laboratory for Artistic Intelligence. Already the questions are rolling in. What does ‘artistic intelligence’ mean? Why a lab? What will we do?

Artistic intelligence refers to all the ways of knowing and doing that art and artists further.

Artistic intelligence is a system of capacities for perception, sensing, discernment, insight, activity, choice-making, and divergent synthesis that is developed by, and transcends beyond human intelligence.

Artistic intelligence includes embodied, inherited, and protected wisdoms — knowledge accumulated and transmitted through body, gift, and ritual.

The Laboratory for Artistic Intelligence develops unusual applications of ‘artistic intelligence’ for society — particularly in matters of public policy. Our multi-sectoral newcomers project is an example of this kind of unusual approach.

We believe, the development of artistic intelligence is as important for society as artificial intelligence.
