Current – trailer: Currensee: Micro-licensing the Attention Economy
The emergence of CGI influencers on social media pushes the limits of the body. As non-human entities progressively consume the marketโs economy, what is the granularity of a body that can be licensed? What is the criteria for value when crediting animals and plants, and… Read More »Current – trailer: Currensee: Micro-licensing the Attention Economy
Infinite Livestream
Livestream culture has exponentially increased in the last two years. Did you know there are 13 million people streaming their lives right now? Twitch, a subsidiary of Amazon is the leading live streaming video service that has 15 million daily active users. The self-streaming culture… Read More »Infinite Livestream
Personalized Narrative
Personalisation is perhaps the most rapidly engaged communication device that narrates our everyday urban routines without our acknowledgement. Algorithmic personalisation is โa process of gathering, storing, and analyzing informationโ (Venugopal, 2009) by recommendation systems. It is a response to the discrepancies between the amount of… Read More »Personalized Narrative
Volumetric Cinema
The advent of new sensing technologies has shifted the contemporary experience of visual content to include 3 dimensions. With remote satellite sensing we have transitioned from viewing the earth from a planar map to a 3 dimensional globe. Depth LIDAR sensors and motion trackers used… Read More »Volumetric Cinema
AI Optimization
Artificial intelligence generates the cinematic substance of today, molding the clay of the cinematic image itself. This can most readily be observed in the cultural phenomena of deep fakes, produced by general adversarial networks (also known as GANs). These neural network processing works in binary… Read More »AI Optimization
Environmental reconstructions
โCurrentโ focuses on democratising reconstruction techniques to facilitate a collective contribution to urban archives. Instead of using high end technologies and softwares that are only available to institutions and corporations, โCurrentโ tested a number of low-end sensors (i.e. mobile phones, Kinect, drones, etc.), open-sourced AI… Read More »Environmental reconstructions
Predictive Modeling
Although we often imagine alternative intelligence to take the form of humanoid personas in some distant future, artificial intelligence is already in our lives in the form of an algorithm. AI predicts and offers us recommendations to our preferences based on databases of our search… Read More »Predictive Modeling
Blockchain Cameras for Truth Authentication
In the era of post-truth, where deepfakes and hyper real simulations trick the human cognition, Currensee proposes the use of algorithmically enhanced collaborative seeing mechanisms in order to authenticate truth through multiple perspectives: increasing the resolution of an event by streaming a wider range of… Read More »Blockchain Cameras for Truth Authentication
