PORTRAIT NOTE2:12 FILM
Philippe Pasquier directs Simon Fraser University’s Metacreation Lab, where research and artistic practice meet around generative systems, machine creativity, sound, and interaction. His spotlight connects that long-running work to a public community learning in real time.
The recording is valuable because it keeps research close to practice. Workshops, experiments, and open technical conversations become ways for artists and builders to encounter ideas that might otherwise stay inside an institution. Philippe’s place in the contact sheet records a bridge between the lab and the room, with computational creativity treated not as a novelty but as a field with history, methods, and consequences.
