PANIC!

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract

PANIC! (Playground AI Network for Interactive Creativity) is an interactive installation that explores the behaviour of connected AI models. Viewers enter text prompts which are transformed as text/audio/images through a "network" of generative AI models. Each output becomes the input for the next iteration, creating an endless cycle of AI-mediated transformation.
