| Inhalt | In this seminar, we will read key sections from James Bridle's Book "Ways of Being" (2022), in which he uses his own artistic practice alongside natural and social sciences, philosophy and speculation to investigate the shifting boundaries of what we call ‘intelligence’. We will place this work in the context of his multi-faceted artistic, research and journalistic practices, paying close attention to how his ongoing research interests manifest themselves across a wide range of genres. About the lecturer: Felix Stalder is a professor at the Zurich University of the Arts, teaching in the Department of Fine Arts. His work focuses on the intersection of cultural, political and technological dynamics, in particular on new modes of commons-based production, copyright, datafication, AI, and transformation of subjectivity. He not only works as an academic, but also as a cultural producer, as long-time moderator of <nettime>, a crucial nexus of critical net culture, first for the email list, now for its node in the fediverse. He is a member of the World Information Institute and the Technopolitics Working Group, both based in Vienna. |
