Vær med når udstillingsaktuelle Nora Al-Badri besøger Kunsthal Charlottenborg og holder foredraget Decolonizing Data: AI and Technoheritage efterfulgt af en samtale med kurator Nadim Samman.
Al-Badri er en del af den aktuelle udstilling Poetics of Encryption med videoværket 'The Post-Truth Museum' (2021–23) med deepfakes af museumsdirektører, der fortæller om deres samlingers imperialistiske fortid.
I foredraget vil Nora Al-Badri diskutere emner som algoritmisk kolonialisme, problemerne med bias, viden og epistemicid, samt præsentere sine værker 'The Post-Truth-Museum' og 'Babylonian Vision'. Hun vil dele sine refleksioner over technoarv, museernes rolle, og hvorfor hun har arbejdet med kunstig intelligens siden 2018.
Foredraget foregår på engelsk. Det er gratis at deltage, tilmelding på forhånd er ikke nødvendig.
Om kunstneren:
Nora Al-Badri er en multidisciplinær og konceptuel mediekunstner med tysk-irakisk baggrund. Hendes værker er forskningsbaserede samt paradisciplinære og postkoloniale. Hun bor og arbejder i Berlin. Hun er uddannet i statskundskab fra Johann Wolfgang Goethe Universitet i Frankfurt/Main, underviser på Eidgenössische Hochschule (ETH) i Zürich og er gæsteprofessor ved Kunstakademiet i Stuttgart.
Hendes praksis fokuserer på politiske emner og det frigørende potentiale i nye teknologier som maskinintelligens eller dataskulpturering. Al-Badris kunstneriske materiale er spekulativ arkæologi, fra fossiler til artefakter eller performative indgreb i museer og andre offentlige rum, der reagerer på de iboende magtstrukturer.
Hun har udstillet på Victoria and Albert Museums Applied Arts Pavilion ved La Biennale di Venezia, Designbiennalen i Istanbul, ZKM Karlsruhe, KW Contemporary Berlin, Science Gallery Dublin, NRW Forum, European Media Art Festival, Transmediale, Space Fundación Telefonica, Ars Electronica blandt andre.
Hendes værker og praksis er blevet omtalt af medier over hele verden, som The New York Times, BBC, The Times, Artnet, Wired, Le Monde Afrique, Financial Times, Arte TV, The Independent, New Statesman, Hyperallergic, Smithsonian, Al Ahram, Vice, Hürriyet, Dezeen, Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung, Spiegel Online, Heise, The Boston Globe, Archdaily, Polska, La informacion, De Volkskrant, Gizmodo, New Scientist, Popular Science og The Verge.

ENG:
Join us for an evening with artist Nora Al-Badri, who will give the talk 'Decolonizing Data: AI and Technoheritage' and afterwards have a conversation with exhibition curator Nadim Samman.
Al-Badri is part of the current exhibition Poetics of Encryption, displaying the video work 'The Post-Truth Museum' (2021–23) which features deepfakes of museum directors narrating their collection’s imperial pasts.
At the lecture at Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Nora Al-Badri will discuss themes such as algorithmic coloniality and the problem with bias, knowledge and epistemicide as well as presenting her works 'The Post-Truth-Museum' and 'Babylonian Vision', sharing her reflections on technoheritage, the role of museums and why she has been working with AI since 2018.
The event will be in English. It's free to participate and no registration is required.
About the artist:
Nora Al-Badri is a multi-disciplinary and conceptual media artist with a German-Iraqi background. Her works are research-based as well as paradisciplinary and post-colonial. She lives and works in Berlin. She graduated in political sciences at Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt/Main and is a lecturer at the Eidgenössische Hochschule (ETH) in Zurich and a guest professor at the Academy of Arts in Stuttgart. Her practice focuses on the politics and the emancipatory potential of new technologies such as machine intelligence or data sculpting. Al-Badri’s artistic material is a speculative archaeology from fossils to artefacts or performative interventions in museums and other public spaces, that respond to the inherent power structures.
She has exhibited in the Viktoria and Albert Museums' Applied Arts Pavilion at La Biennale di Venezia, Design Biennal Istanbul, ZKM Karlsruhe, KW Contemporary Berlin, Science Gallery Dublin, NRW Forum, European Media Art Festival, Transmediale, Space Fundacion Telefonica, Ars Electronica amongst others.
Her work was featured from media all over the world like The New York Times, BBC, The Times, Artnet, Wired, Le Monde Afrique, Financial Times, Arte TV, The Independent, New Statesmen, Hyperallergic, Smithsonian, Al Ahram, Vice, Hürriyet, Dezeen, Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung, Spiegel Online, Heise, The Boston Globe, Archdaily, Polska, La informacion, De Volkskrant, Gizmodo, New Scientist, Popular Science and The Verge amongst others.
