HEAD - Genève

  Assembling Intelligence: Alternative Perspectives on AI through Art and Design, a multidisciplinary symposium organised by HEAD – Genève (HES-SO), will bring together artists, designers, and researchers to highlight a spectrum of alternative definitions for ‘artificial intelligence’. The discussions will introduce much-needed diversity into the otherwise monochromatic and frequently cynical perspectives manifested in mainstream corporate AI models.    A series of talks, workshops, and performances will bring attention to overlooked intellectual histories of AI, explore intersections between popular culture and human-machine intimacy, look at open software as means for creative emancipation, and highlight diverse futures for our damaged planet by extrapolating from the material and environmental underpinnings of AI infrastructures.    Confirmed participants: Dries Depoorter, Nadia Piet (AIxDesign), Computational Mama, Tariq Krim, Feminist Internet, Eglė Kulbokaitė (Gawęda - Kulbokaitė), Antonio Casilli, Saul Pandelakis, 33EMYBW, and many more. Please book a separate ticket for each day you are planning to attend in-person.
