Generative Art and Adversarial Networks

Pittsburgh, PA

Generative Art and Adversarial Networks
Generative Art and Adversarial Networks is an event to discuss, share, and collaborate on generative art and AI over tea. Discussions will revolve around exploring, creating, and participating in generative art enabled by developing or fledgling technology, with emphasis on AI. Members are encouraged to share anything interesting they've found in this domain, whether it's some art they really fancy, or a new way to think about some part of the technology ecosystem. Generative art is art that in whole or in part has been created with the use of an autonomous system. An autonomous system in this context is generally one that is non-human and can independently determine features of an artwork that would otherwise require decisions made directly by the artist. In some cases, the human creator may claim that the generative system represents their own artistic idea, and in others that the system takes on the role of the creator. “Generative art” often refers to algorithmic art (algorithmically determined computer-generated artwork), but artists can also make it using systems of chemistry, biology, mechanics and robotics, smart materials, manual randomization, mathematics, data mapping, symmetry, tiling, and more.

Christian Small Business Owners → Education & Networking

Pittsburgh, PA

Christian Small Business Owners → Education & Networking
Our events are now completely online. We are a group of Christian small business owners looking to have breakthroughs in the following: * Continuing education: Actionable insights for running a profitable small business in accordance with the will of God. * Contacts: You will meet other Christian Small Business Owners, so that you can establish collaborations and friendships. * The joy of being on a faith-based business journey together with other Christian Small Business Owners. Are you a follower of Jesus Christ and a solopreneur or small business owner? Then please join our group ASAP! See you soon, and be blessed! Norbert Bollow, Organizer P. S. for the benefit of those who like to have things spelled out in detail, here are some more specifics: Goals of the group: Learning from each other in informal discussion and from prepared presentations. Business networking / creating contacts, collaborations and friendships. Having a good time together. We are committed to creating a healthy community of support for all our members for their wellbeing and business. We will learn from experience what specific kinds of events to do in order to pursue these goals, but there will probably always be some educational content, some related discussion, and some social and business networking aspects. All events of the group are provided free of charge. There are no costs or fees charged to members. We all benefit most from our interactions when events are well-attended, without the hassle of fees getting in the way. Who should join the group: **Christian Small Business Owners, widely interpreted.** Besides well-established businesses, it’s also quite ok if your business is only a side hustle or even still a dream transitioning to the planning phase. All who consider themselves Christians, or even just curious about the Christian faith, are welcome. While we discuss the application of what the Bible says to today’s business realities, differences of theology and faith practices between different faith traditions are not what we’re concerned with in this group. The group and all events are intended to be a friendly and totally discrimination-free environment. If someone says something that you consider to be incompatible with the Christian faith, please treat them as an honored guest. The organizer of this group is himself a Christian solopreneur, self-employed as a business coach. The group is not affiliated with any religious or business organization beyond this group and a couple of similar groups run by the same organizer, each with a different geographical focus; online events can be shared across groups in order to bring a good number of like-minded people together.
