Themed "Why Sentience?," the hybrid online/on-site program features the works of more than 100 local and international artists, adapted to a virtual platform.</p><p>Codependent Algorithms explores human interdependence with algorithms. The project begins by choosing a random word. Then a misspelling algorithm, used to intentionally mimic human spelling errors to improve website search rankings, deforms the word which is displayed on the right. Then a spelling correction algorithm corrects that word and displays it on the left, creating an infinite feedback loop of deformation and correction that removes the need for human input and intervention.</p><p>ISEA 2020 focuses on work and talks that touch on animality; the ecosophic world; machinic sense and sensibility; sentient difference; matter鈥檚 nattering; the politics of sentience; and the planetary topics.</p><p> </p></div>
