EARL 2025 Keynote Speakers

About Eric Drass
Eric is an artist making work in a range of media, from painting, to music, to machine-learning AI art.
Some of his favourite themes are identity, consciousness, the philosophical ramifications of artificial intelligence, big data and the relationship between humans and machines.
We’re excited to see Eric take to the stage in Brighton, both as a local and inspirational AI genius and in his own words, “I’ll ponder what to talk about closer to the time – AI is an alarmingly fast-moving space!”.
