Speaker
William Latham is a pioneering UK digital artist well known for his evolutionary art created at IBM in the late eighties. After twelve years as a Creative Director in Rave Music and Computer Games, he became a Professor at Goldsmiths (University of London). His art is in the Centre Pompidou, the Henry Moore Institute, the V&A Museum and many other collections. His VR and generative work have been shown widely internationally, in recent years particularly in Germany and China. Currently, William and his long-standing collaborator, Stephen Todd are working with Google DeepMind to use AI to drive and steer the evolution of their organic art. This work was shown for the first time in the Evolution and Foundational AI exhibition in London in late 2025, sponsored by Google DeepMind. William is a co-founder with Prof Frederic Fol Leymarie of The Creative Machine Exhibition, now touring China.
