Web pages with broken links, low-view YouTube videos and the countless images that make up machine-learning datasets are opaque digital spaces to which the human eye has little access, yet they may be full of visuality. Digital dark matter is the hypothesis proposed in relation to these inert data within vast and complex digital infrastructures. As with the concept of the same name in astrophysics, its existence can be inferred through absence. This content exists as a kind of paralysed matter that may affect the broader construction of digital culture, even though it may never have been seen by human beings.<\/p>\n
Digital Dark Matter<\/em> explores this concept, speculating on what it may be composed of and what it might reveal about the non-visual gaps in computational systems. Based in Portugal, Rosemary Lee\u2019s work focuses on technology and on how the discourse surrounding it is shaped by trends from the past. Addressing aspects of digital culture that shape contemporary reality, her new exhibition analyses the operationalisation of vision as it has manifested in advances in generative artificial intelligence. This work invites us to reflect on the intangible forces that may influence advanced technologies and on the implications this may have for visual culture. On 12 December, the American artist presents the research behind the theme of this exhibition in a masterclass promoted by Circuito.<\/p>\n supported by<\/strong>\u00a0portuguese republic – culture, youth and sports \/ general direction of the arts \/ network of portuguese theaters and cinemas (rtcp). portuguese contemporary art network (rpac).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Web pages with broken links, low-view YouTube videos and the countless images that make up machine-learning datasets are opaque digital spaces to which the human eye has little access, yet they may be full of visuality.
