How can AI resurrect a fictional long-lost band?

 “It blows my mind that today somebody can stumble online and listen to the life’s work of a band in an evening…what we’re discovering through generative AI is this archive of Dead Already.”

Thrash metal meets academia in this second episode of our AI-themed mini-series. You’ll hear from leading digital arts researchers about an innovative project that uses generative AI to bring long-forgotten fictional band Dead Already back to life. Showcased by our School of Digital Arts (SODA) at Texas tech festival South by South West (SXSW), it’s pushing boundaries, prompting debate, and blasting riffs.
