The discourse around large, generative models (“AI”)—both their threat and promise—has reached an urgent salience in recent years, as images and texts increasingly populate and confuse our online spaces, classrooms, and public squares. When discussing the visual, there is often a focus on the ethical and political implications of a flood of believably photo-real images on already-shaky regimes of truth. Images made through automatic processes, however, were part of our visual landscape long before the introduction of AI models. For example, pattern recognition algorithms and computer vision create and capture images that power ubiquitous corporate and state surveillance.
Models like Dall-E and Midjourney translate textual input into new images using a model trained on gigantic image datasets derived from that surveillance and from the visual artifacts of popular culture. These new tools raise concerns familiar to the earlier mediated representation they so effectively mimic. AI models, created by humans and embedded with their choices (O’Neil, 2016), reflect the data on which they’re trained. This gives way to permutations of stereotype and caricature, racist depictions, and violence (Buolumwini, 2020; Noble, 2018). Against such forces, artists and activists have appropriated these tools to create new works that aggregate large image sets to oppositional or playful ends.
For our 37th issue, Invisible Culture seeks articles and artworks that address the broad category of “automated images” in their many valences. We seek work engaged with the social and political effects of automated images and welcome submissions that approach automated images with the enduring questions and methods of visual studies (ex: authorship, indexicality, and reproduction).

The Movement Lab at Rhode Island School of Design is actively seeking two research affiliates for 10-month term appointments in the Movement Lab Fellowship commencing in Fall 2024. The Movement Lab Fellowship program supports postgraduate work that explores movement at the intersection of language, identity, cultures, ecosystems, and/or peoples. Incumbents in the Movement Lab Fellowship will spend this time focused on their independent creative work/research projects. The art and study of movement is central to many disciplines and work may include, but not be limited to, the expanded fields of animation, filmmaking, immersive arts, performance, game arts, dance, puppetry, robotics, and kinetic sculpture. Bringing their individual perspectives to the Film/Animation/Video department, they will support ongoing efforts to decolonize curricula and advance the mission of the Movement Lab as a collaborative cross-disciplinary center for the creative study of movement.Complete applications received on or before 4 December 2023 will be given first consideration and applicants will be notified in the spring.
For the complete posting details:
