Well, this is new.
Nobody really knows where a frontier leads when there isn't a map, or even a trail yet. But according to the westerns I've seen, when you’re in the Wild West, you find the right outpost and team up with the right people.
Talking with Mal Ward and the crew at Arts & Sciences, it was immediately clear we share the same curiosity, ambition, and respect for the unknown. They’re approaching the generative AI space with genuine intention, craft, and imagination.
Thrilled to join the Arts & Intelligence roster as a director. Let’s mark some territory.
From shots:
“You can’t survive in baseball until you learn to have a relationship with failure,” Miller says, expanding on his perspective, saying, “It hurts, but it’s the thing that teaches and sharpens you. That DNA translated almost perfectly to being a creative. I probably reject 95 percent of what I generate. AI makes it easy to create something that looks finished, but ‘finished-looking’ isn’t the same as good. That’s where taste comes in. The technology can generate endless possibilities. Deciding which ones deserve to survive is still the job.”
Mal Ward, Managing Director and Partner at Arts & Sciences, adds, “Oyl is a perfect fit for where we’re heading with Arts & Intelligence, it’s a new frontier, and we believe that our A&I artists will be among the most daring minds to chart that course. And Oyl’s creative pedigree combined with his visionary generative work makes for a powerful combination in this space. Anyone can create throwaway AI content, but not everyone can create stories that have a narrative arc and visual sophistication in the way Oyl can.”
