A first attempt to make the infrastructure of algorithmic surveillance visible at a glance. ▪︎ Welcome to Set by Cyan Bae (premiered at IFFR 2026, Tënk Opening Scenes Award at Visions du Réel). What happens on the sets where AI emotion-recognition systems are trained? Cyan reenacts the strange, playful labour of generating "ground truth" for machines designed to read our faces + Work-in-progress excerpts from Cyan's two upcoming shorts in the deception-detection trilogy. ▪︎ A preview of "An Algorithm of Violence", Francesco Ragazzi's essay film following a software engineer building a violence-detection algorithm. What does it mean, ethically and aesthetically, to teach a machine to recognise a punch? ▪︎ "Perplexity" by Ruben van de Ven (previously at NEXT LEVEL, Dortmund). A camera, a computer and a laser projector predict your path across the room and trace it at your feet. Walk normally, and you become legible. Walk strangely, and you become suspicious. The algorithm's error becomes a measure of suspicion. 📅 Programme 🥂 Wed 18 — opening night 🎙️ Thu 19 — public programme with policy makers, artists, researchers and activists 🖼️ Fri 20 — exhibition day Free entry. Come look at the machines that are looking at you. 🔗 More info + RSVP: [LINK IN BIO] #WatchingMachines #SecurityVision #AlgorithmicSurveillance #FacialRecognition #CriticalAI #ComputerVision #DocumentaryFilm #EssayFilm #DataVisualisation #SurveillanceStudies | @thegreyspaceinthemiddle @recntr.leiden @erc_research @polscileiden".

This course proposes a different approach: AI as a cultural, linguistic and aesthetic infrastructure. Through theory, demonstrations and hands-on experimentation, participants will learn how to work critically and creatively with generative systems, understanding not only what they produce, but how they organize language, images, knowledge and imagination. The course is designed for artists, researchers, writers, designers, educators, cultural workers and students who want to use AI systems with greater awareness, precision and creative autonomy. No advanced technical background is required. The program combines historical and theoretical framing with practical exercises in text generation, image and video prompting, creative workflow design, academic writing, fact-checking and basic automation. Across eight online sessions, participants will explore the genealogy of prompting, the operational nature of language in AI systems, embedding spaces, prompt design strategies, text-to-image and text-to-video workflows, API-based experimentation, AI-assisted research practices, and the ethical, ecological and political implications of generative technologies. The workshop will be led by Angela Fusillo (@angela.fusillo_), a digital artist and researcher specialising in artificial intelligence and its social implications.
