VDNKh Exhibition of artificial intelligence paintings in science and technology pavilions19:52 | 14 May 2023

“Robostation” on VDNKh In honor of his birthday, he presented a gallery of pictures painted by artificial intelligence. The general theme is the connection between the past and the present. Robots have been launched into the lands of Russian history. Some references to famous works of art are immediately read, somewhere everything looks completely new. Eternal fantasies on the topic: “What if there was a time machine?”, But in a new aesthetic framework.

It will be hard for conservative art critics to accept such a format, but it’s definitely worth giving it a shot and seeing for yourself, especially since pictures drawn by a neural network are perceived completely differently on smartphone screens and in real life. in the right environment and with the right team.

If you’re not a fan of modern art because “it’s not clear, there are some smudges and blemishes that even a child would draw”, then it’s well worth a go. Don’t be in a hurry to dismiss the events just because it depends on the present time and the digital environment, the pictures look like the ones we are all used to, first of all. Stand up and wonder for 30 minutes “what is being drawn there?” absolutely not necessary (almost). There is also a nice difference from the classical exhibition – the artworks you like can be booked or purchased immediately.

This is an ideal format if you want to teach your child to enjoy the arts, and a five-hour trip to the Tretyakov Gallery clearly does not bode well. There are not many pictures, the concentration of attention will not be lost, and children’s eyes will definitely be hooked. The probability of the option “I am bored at home” will be minimal, and not only for children. All this can be seen from April 29 to May 29.

Alongside the new paintings, the main exhibit of the exhibition is preserved. Let’s not get off topic, if you want to gain some basic knowledge in robotics then you are in the wrong place. Boring lectures at university, but here everything is in a way that both children and adults in the humanities can understand.

Few places have the ability to interact live with robots that we usually only see through the screen. The coolest thing about “Robostation” is that everything is interactive. too much chatty Social robots Separately, pay attention to the robot Boris and the Beggar, the first one stole my heart and you can hug him, and the second one will at least make you smile and raise money for good deeds. Some pieces of iron are really cute, and if you’re worried about modern technology taking over our world, then they’ll make you change your mind a little bit and steer you in your own direction. rigged cars.

Not all robots are domestic production, but this is stated directly, and everyone who needs to speaks speaks Russian, so there will be no problems in intercultural communication.

By the way, if you still have not been able to jump into the hype locomotive and do not understand how a 3D printer works, then it’s time to take a look at it live and also see a 3D printer made on another printer. 3d printer, How do you think they reproduce?

Of course, the general atmosphere was designed for children, but it will be hard for adults to resist the opportunity to poke, press and play there as well. So take a child with you (perhaps not your own, but the main thing is to return it later) and, under the guise of children’s leisure, you can, with a clear conscience, participate in all robot interactions.

In general, both the exhibition and the permanent exhibition are not very big, you will not waste much time in Robostation, this is a plus for some, a minus for others, but keep in mind. There are a few places where you can interact with robots like this one, so it’s definitely worth a try, it’s a good way to diversify your walk in VDNKh and see something new.
