Thinking About Culture (not) as Data
Wer: Lev Manovich, Distinguished Professor at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York
Wann: 4. Juni 2024, 10:00 AM CEST, online
Abstrakt: Why do we often approach cultural data using ideas developed in the 18th and 19th century, before digital computers and big data? Can we think about cultural objects and histories without using categories? What can AI see in cultural artefacts, and what it remains blind to?
Lev Manovich will discuss what he sees as some of the biggest challenges in looking at culture with computers, and suggest some ways to address those challenges.
