    RISD Debates in AI: Jon Rafman

    This Debates in AI talk features Jon Rafman, an artist renowned for his exploration of digital cultures through video, animation, photography, sculpture and installation. His work, deeply infused with an anthropological point of view, delves into the complexities of life in the digital age, addressing themes of alienation, nostalgia and the quest for connection. Rafman’s notable projects include The Nine Eyes of Google Street View, capturing unexpected moments of humanity within Google Maps, and films like Codes of Honor and Dream Journal 2016–2019 that investigate niche Internet subcultures and personal dreams mixed with mythological and pop culture narratives. His art, often accompanied by experimental-electro soundtracks, invites viewers into immersive installations, challenging perceptions of technology’s role in shaping human experiences. Introducing him and talking with him after his talk is Debates of AI co-curator Marco Roso. Marco is a co-founder of the New York-based art collective DIS, has been innovating at the intersection of art, media and technology since launching DIS Magazine in 2010. DIS explores the boundaries of content creation and distribution, from fashion and critical essays to artist-made stock images and collaborative products. The collective shifted focus in 2018 to their streaming platform, dis.art, expanding art’s reach into education and entertainment. DIS has made significant contributions to contemporary art, curating the ninth Berlin Biennale and participating in exhibitions worldwide, including at MoMA and the New Museum. Their latest project, Everything but the World, ventures into TV, showcasing their ongoing exploration of new narratives and histories.
