- Part of series: IMAGE + BIAS. FILMIC EXPLORATIONS: Workshops
Introductory level workshop defines what algorithms are and how they relate to the broader fields of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Through hands-on activities and discussions, participants gain insights into how algorithms can reflect existing biases in society, and how they can create new ones. The closing section suggests ways that we can live alongside algorithms by understanding and challenging them.
Workshop Outline
Louise Hisayasu is a project coordinator on The Glass Room project at Tactical Tech. The Glass Room is a public intervention which aims to demystify technology through thought-provoking, immersive and creative exhibitions. At Tactical Tech, Louise is engaged in exploring how content can be co-designed, scaled and presented with diverse communities globally.
This workshop accompanies the film series IMAGE+BIAS. FILMIC EXPLORATIONS and is part of the project IMAGE + BIAS that critically engages with the cultural realities being increasingly determined by imperceptible technologies.
