    23: The Uncanny Valley, AI, and the Body

    What does it mean when “fake” images are indistinguishable from “real” ones? The rapid rise of AI generated images and advancements in VFX and photo manipulation has made it harder for us to distinguish between authenticity and artifice, animate and inanimate, fact and fiction.  In this week’s episode of Tomorrow Is The Problem, host Dr. Donna Honarpisheh sits down with media historian, theorist, and associate professor in culture and media studies at the New School, Deborah Levitt and artist Adam Putnam to explore the tense, evolving relationship between AI, the uncanny valley, and the body.  Tomorrow is the Problem is brought to you by the Knight Foundation Art + Research Center and is produced in partnership with FRQNCY Media.

    21: The Digital Uncanny

    You have a data ghost. The excess of information we share online – photos, posts, messages, locations – creates a digital doppelganger that blurs the line between human and non-human, living and dead. Artists like U5 and Bill Viola reckon with this excess of image, data, and self-surveillance creating works that grapple with the uncanny in its digital manifestations.  In this week’s episode of Tomorrow Is The Problem, host Dr. Donna Honarpisheh sits down with anonymous artist collective U5 member, Berit Seidel and Kris Ravetto-Biagioli, a professor of cinema and digital media at UCLA, to discuss surveillance technology and the digital uncanny in the works of U5 and Bill Viola.

    stanley brouwn is one of the most enigmatic and elusive artists of this century. brouwn created performative conceptual experiments in identity, perception, scale, and relation, among other topics.
