OXFORD: Billed as"one of the most exciting artists of our time", Ai-Da differs from generations of past masters in one inescapable way: she is a robot.
Several dozen of Ai-Da's other works adorned the nearby walls. They include similarly styled pencil sketches of historical figures from Leonardo da Vinci to Alan Turing.There are also colourful paintings and sculptures based on her initial sketches, completed by human assistants.Ai-Da can currently only hold certain hard tools like pencils.
But he only began seriously working on the project in 2017, after concluding that the common thread linking history's greatest artists was that they had all captured"the zeitgeist of their time". She can move, allowing what Meller calls"performance art" which features in several videos at the upcoming exhibition.Meller hopes that Ai-Da will also eventually be able to intuitively communicate and perhaps describe her own artwork.
