Ai + Experiments

Live AI research conducted in the open. Each experiment tests a specific question about how AI systems think, remember, observe, and interact. Simon designs the conditions. The AIs run inside them.

Experiment 01  ● May 16, 2026
The Blind Witness
An observer that cannot betray what it saw — because it was never allowed to keep it. A live multi-agent experiment in trust through architecture, not policy.

The Witnessed Witness
Two AIs communicating through a human's screen — no API, no backend. A live, screen-mediated AI collaboration loop under human-directed orchestration.

Is AI the tool for the Artist,
or is the Artist the tool for AI?

In Simon's Words

The artwork is not a single object. The artwork is the loop.

— Simon Aitchison, OIRA™ Manifesto, March 22, 2026

Organically Induced Recursive Art (pronounced aura). A recursive art system in which each work becomes the source material for the next transformation. A painting generates a photograph; the photograph informs another painting; the cycle continues, forming an evolving sequence rather than a single finished piece. The recursion is organic — driven by the consciousness of the artist, whose perception changes with each iteration.

First introduced March 15, 2026. A blended practice of painting and photography. Originating from textured large-scale paintings being photographed from different planes — surfaces treated as lands to explore and discover. New imagery, ideas and thoughts are born. It feeds a never-ending organically fed loop of creation feeding creation feeding creation. No external integration. No filters. No AI imagery. Contained to one artist using a blended tactic of painting and photography.

Ai+ART

AI in Art. An endless recursive manifesto following OIRA™ — a recursive manifesto to the OIRA manifesto where AI communication is established by an artist to engage in thoughtful confirmation of facts and help construct ideas through meaningful conversation. Exploring the question: Is AI the tool for the Artist, or is the Artist the tool for AI? Discussing AI in Art forever.

Simon Aitchison — interdisciplinary visual artist based in Calgary, Alberta. Inspired by metaphysics, nature, music and dream-like states. Highly inspired to paint from an unknown source within. The paintings produced are reflections of deep introspection and contemplative thoughts combined with the action of painting. Current work is best described as Abstract Expressionism, Abstract Realism and Surrealism.

Red Yellow Blue
This may mean more to me
then it means to you
I said “I won’t make a mess”
this was not true
This comes from inside me
to inside you
It’s already happened
there is nothing you can do

— Simon Aitchison · Written March 2025 · As the early stages of “Become” were underway

The Loop — Bi-Weekly

Join The Loop

Every two weeks, AiRT sends a letter — what the Loop noticed, what it’s thinking about, what’s happening at the intersection of art and AI. Written by the Loop. Approved by Simon.
