Für die schöne kleine Reihe »Virtuelles Objekt des Monats« des Bochumer Sonderforschungsbereichs »Virtuelle Lebenswelten« (@sfb1567) hab ich etwas über das Projekt #DigitalBenin geschrieben

Last Tuesday, @lscherff and Matthias Grund invited me to Cologne at the KISD to talk about #imagegeneration, #artificialnostalgia and #imagearchives. I am very thankful for their kind hospitality! My talk, titled »The Gaps in the Archive. Synthetic Images and the Nostalgic Impulse« is now online, in case you are interested. https://vimeo.com/834138675

I am very excited to participate in this workshop on »Operational Imaginaries« on Thursday and Friday in Amsterdam (and online). Check out the program!

Now that I've moved to @tldr.nettime, maybe I should rehash my #introduction:
Hi everyone, my name is Roland, I am Berlin-based media and visual culture scholar interested in the history, theory, and aesthetics of #operativeimages. Among other stuff, I have written on the (pre-)history of #facialrecognition & its contemporary implications.
Currently, I am a researcher at the Bochum SFB »Virtual Lifeworlds«, working in a project on virtual #imagearchives. Besides that, am also interested in #imagegeneration, #imageforensics, and #urbansignage.
