The lectures trace the evolution of digital art history, cover methods such as data visualization, mapping and network analysis, and ask how generative AI is transforming contemporary image production and how computational approaches may both reproduce and challenge Eurocentric paradigms. On 12 November, Leonardo Impett gives a talk titled \"Robots Leaving the Cinema\" on the concept of neural exchange value and how generative video systems turn visual culture into a space of accelerated machine simulation.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/zurich/events/now-processing-computational-methods-and-digital-epistemolog-40737/", "official_url": "https://www.khist.uzh.ch/de/chairs/moderne/events/Now-Processing--Computational-Methods-and-Digital-Epistemologies-in-Art-History-.html", "image": "https://noky.io/images/6ab6755aeec1a5aeb51a6f6e9885a48b341a0b0b4baed8603ba388db451a1f13-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-12-10T18:15:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "Rämistr. 59", "address": "", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Art & Computer Science Talks", "start": "2026-11-05T17:45:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "ETH OAT", "address": "Andreasstrasse 5, 8050 Zürich", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "category": "talks-readings", "tags": ["science/computer-science", "art"], "description": "«I could not reach my own brain just now» is a talk in the «Art & Computer Science» series.
