Venue: DFK Paris, Paris FRA
In the language of machine learning, the term “interpolation” refers to a foundational mathematical technique used to estimate unknown values that fall between known data points. Interpolation allows to fill in missing values in existing datasets, but also to create different kinds of transitions between discrete data points. In the context of this conference, “interpolation” indicates the intention to reflect on the relations and mutual interactions between the fields of AI, art, and art history.
The conference will analyze how recent developments in the field of both analytic and generative AI have profoundly transformed the ways in which images are captured, generated, modified, seen and de- scribed, and how contemporary artists have tackled the increasing presence of AI systems, with all their epistemological and political implications, across all layers of culture and society. It will also address the question of whether traditional art-historical and media-theoretical concepts allow us to fully grasp the current, tectonic shifts, or whether new concepts and categories are needed.
The conference is structured into four panels and will include a guided tour of the exhibition The World Through AI/Le monde selon l’IA, a screening of recent AI films by Alexander Kluge, and a conversation with the author.
