[Commlist] 2023 Conference series on Algorithms, Audiovisual and Cinema

Sat Jan 14 13:56:38 GMT 2023





*2023 Online Conference Series: ALGORITHMS, AUDIOVISUAL AND CINEMA*

*Co-organization: *ICNOVA (Universidade Nova de Lisboa) and CECC (Universidade Católica Portuguesa)

The development and application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in the audiovisual sector has been growing in recent years. Over-the-top services (OTT), distributed directly to viewers via the Internet, are particularly associated with a shift towards automation through algorithmic mediation in audiovisual content, led by platforms such as Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu, Netflix, among others. In this series of conferences throughout 2023, international experts will share state-of-the-art knowledge about the impact of algorithmic systems on the design, production, and reception of audiovisual content. We aim to initiate a conversation between researchers, professionals, and viewers that, being directly about the audiovisual and cinematic experience, inevitably touches themes such as the datafication of society, the transformation of the meaning of culture, and the governance of automation systems.
