The “Algorithmic Cultures” research group presents: Speculative Gaze: Reading the Algorithmic Image.

In this seminar we will engage with the AI-generated image as a site for layered interpretation, inquiry, and cross-referential research. How do we see an image that isn’t solely of human origin? Each month, we will “read” three AI-generated images, analyzing their ambiguity and generative potential by linking them with theories, artworks, literature, film, sound, and more. Through this process, we ask: What networks of meaning arise from images crafted by algorithms?

Session Dates are 16 January, 13 February, 13 March and 10 April. All sessions will take place from 5 pm to 7 pm in the Sandberg Auditorium on the 3rd floor of the BC building at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie.

The seminar is open to everyone; students/alumni of Rietveld/Sandberg and people with an interest in research. Registration for the whole seminar or for individual sessions: eventix.shop/euxdgq4j
