ON THE OCCASION OF THE PUBLICATION OF TRANSBORDEUR #3 PHOTOGRAPHY, HISTORY, SOCIETY, LE BAL PROPOSES A JEFF GUESS PERFORMANCE FOLLOWED BY A DISCUSSION WITH OLIVIER LUGON, ESTELLE BLASCHKE AND DAVIDE NERINI.

In the age of autonomous cars and connected refrigerators, creating intelligent machines would mean giving them a sense of sight. The latest issue of the journal Transbordeur, whose thematic dossier focuses on the history of the multiple links between photography and information technologies, shows how this dream of a vision shared with machines, which seems to us to stem from digital technology, has in fact already emerged in the past and has found other technical solutions over the years.

With :
Estelle Blaschke, historian of photography, University of Lausanne, Jeff Guess, artiste, Olivier Lugon, historian of photography, University of Lausanne
Davide Nerini, doctoral student in the history of photography at the University of Lausanne and scientific collaborator at the Swiss Institute for the Study of Art
