http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~spring/demos.html very nicely compiled list of interesting AI demos and projects.

architecture:

http://www.aac.bartlett.ucl.ac.uk/weblog an experimental weblog created by the staff of Bartlett's Adaptive Architecture and Computation course, different links to interesting websites, some so-so, but you can find pearls too.

AI and artificial life:

http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/catty.shtml ...talk with Catty, a chatter bot born in the see of information. her brain is as vast as whole internet.. she will answer every question giving you a lot of inpiration. hm, she's like dr. Know or something :)

http://www.frams.alife.pl ...here you can check research investigated by polish scientists about artificial life simulation. you can download videos, pictures of artificial creatures or even run them live on your computer (after downloading program).

music inspirations:

http://www.somafm.com/ ...really nice independent radio station. no talking, music 24/7, ambient, chillout, jazzy, good as relaxing background.
