SUMMARY:Culture and Computation
DESCRIPTION:Talking to the Midnight Broadcast: Reviving 1990s City Memorie
 s with AI\n\nThis project explores how AI can preserve and reinterpret cul
 tural memory, raising profound questions about the role of technology in c
 onnecting past and future. By transforming transient, everyday digital int
 eractions into meaningful archives, it invites reflection on how today’s v
 oices might...\n\n\nTongge Yu (Tsinghua University, Massachusetts Institut
 e of Technology (MIT)) and Fan Xiang (Tsinghua University)\n--------------
 -------\nCulture and Computation - Q&A\n\nAfter all of the presentations, 
 attendees are invited to participate in a Q&A.\n\n---------------------\nS
 peculative AI Re-enactment of the Figurists' Encounters With the I Ching\n
 \nInstead of pursuing the concern of AI displacing artists, we emphasise a
  role for artists in reshaping technology and branching it in new directio
 ns. A role that places us less as a user of AI technology, waiting for its
  creative outputs, but as a maker of what AI can be, perhaps leading us to
 wards ...\n\n\nIsaac Joseph Clarke (Hong Kong University of Science and Te
 chnology (Guangzhou)); Raul Masu (Hong Kong University of Science and Tech

 orou (Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Guangzhou)\n--------
 -------------\nAlgorithmic Miner: Humanity in Service - An AI-Driven VR Jo
 urney into Machine Logic\n\nAlgorithmic Miner uses VR to reveal the hidden
  labor behind AI systems. By immersing participants in data annotation tas
 ks, it critically reflects on exploitation, automation, and techno-capital
 ism, prompting new discussions on ethical, human-centered design in intera
 ctive systems.\n\n\nJia SUN (The Hong Kong University of Science and Techn
 ology (Guangzhou)); Zheng WEI (The Hong Kong University of Science and Tec
 hnology); and Pan HUI (The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology 
 (Guangzhou), The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology)\n--------
 -------------\nDigital F(r)ictions: Reimagining Colombian Art and its Terr
 itory\n\nBoth a critique and celebration of digital representation, this p
 roject offers multiple perspectives beyond technological homogenization. T
 hrough exploring digital f(r)ictions and multiplicities, we reject singula
 r viewpoints in favor of interconnected truths. Our work with AI and Colom
