# Gene Kogan

Gene Kogan is an artist and engineer working with AI and generative systems.

Originally trained as a machine learning engineer working on [music information retrieval](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_information_retrieval), he developed an interest in interactive and generative art. Inspired by open-source kits like [Processing](https://processing.org/) and [openFrameworks](https://openframeworks.cc/), he began a creative coding practice using early deep learning models, sharing his experiments and [code](https://github.com/genekogan/) online through [ml4a](https://ml4a.net), a free curriculum teaching creative and generative AI to a generation of technologists.

He has given [hundreds of lectures and workshops](https://genekogan.com/cv/) helping to [popularize generative AI](https://news.artnet.com/market/9-artists-artificial-intelligence-1384207), and was one of the earliest people [lecturing on decentralized AI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcKMSLn_9Yg) and [developing autonomous agents](https://medium.com/@genekogan/artist-in-the-cloud-8384824a75c7). He is a co-founder of [Eden](https://app.eden.art/agents) and [Mars College](https://mars.college/). The founders of [Runway](https://runwayml.com/) were his students at [NYU](https://itp.nyu.edu/), and he became the company's first advisor.

His work has been exhibited at [Christie's](https://onlineonly.christies.com/s/augmented-intelligence/gene-kogan-b-1985-27/250109), [Ars Electronica](https://webarchive.ars.electronica.art/festival/2017/ai/en/image-transformations/), the [Seoul Mediacity Biennale](https://mediacityseoul.kr/en/yesterday/participants/gene-kogan), the [Ming Contemporary Art Museum](https://www.e-flux.com/announcements/296361/mind-the-deep-artificial-intelligence-and-artistic-creation/), [Fotomuseum Winterthur](https://www.fotomuseum.ch/en/situations-post/densecap-deepdream/), and the [Toronto International Film Festival](https://www.instagram.com/p/BhGp0CmAgTr/), and he has presented at NeurIPS in [2019](https://genekogan.com/misc/neurips2019.pdf) and [2025](https://openreview.net/forum?id=iSCvOW2qiH), and CVPR in [2026](https://thecvf-art.com/project.php?year=2026&artist=vanessa-rosa&id=1017). His 2019 project [Abraham](https://abraham.ai) proposed an autonomous artificial artist, now a living work that produces art daily under a thirteen-year covenant running from 2025 to 2038. He is a co-founder of Eden, a platform for autonomous generative artists, and of Mars College, an off-grid community for learning about AI, art, and technology.

Cristóbal Valenzuela, founder and CEO of Runway, has credited encountering Gene's early work with sparking his own path into the field: "I came across the work of Gene Kogan around neural style transfer. At the time, I had no idea how it was made but I was fascinated by the idea of computational creativity and what deep-based image techniques might enable and mean to artists."

In 2018, Artnet named Gene among nine pioneering artists exploring AI, alongside Mario Klingemann, Anna Ridler, Sofia Crespo, and Helena Sarin ([feature](https://news.artnet.com/market/9-artists-artificial-intelligence-1384207)).
