Digital intelligence / intelligences numériques

Publié le par Alexandre Gefen (Source : DI 2014)

An interdisciplinary scientific conference

Digital sciences and technologies have deeply transformed our social structures and relationship with knowledge, culture, territories, society. They also modify the structure of our identities.

Digital technologies are an accelerator of innovations in our practices as well as a vector of social progress. But they also raise growing concerns as they carry potential risks for our tomorrow’s societies, both on a societal, economic, technological, sanitary and legal plan.

The ambition of this conference is to offer a first international scientific event dedicated to the study of emergent(s) digital Culture (s) (in an anthropological sense, Culture is the way of life of a group- Maquet, 1949) and to the different kind of individual and collective associated intelligences.

Pluri- and interdisciplinary by definition, this conference will bring together researchers and students stemming from Humanities, Information and Communication Sciences and Technologies and Biology & Health: IT, automatic, robotics, electronics, telecoms, law, economics & management, design, communication, sociology, anthropology, psychology, philosophy, town planning, geography, addiction treatment, neurobiology, etc.

Resolutely opened towards territory and in particular towards the actors of the metropolitan and (inter-) regional digital ecosystem (entrepreneurs, associations, territorial institutions, artists, etc.), this conference also aims at facilitating and fertilizing  exchanges,  creative  frictions and questioning of obvious facts on the relationships between Arts, Sciences and Economy.

Keynotes

 

1.Nicole Dewandre

 

The Human Condition in an hyperconnected Era

We often refer and insist on the speed of changes induced by technological, and notably ICT, developments. I shall argue that, more than speed, what matters is to take the measure of the nature, the radicality and the depth of the change we are going through: we are witnessing a change of era that has been anticipated by social sciences, humanities and art, but is now to be acknowledged and endorsed by policy-making. We are stepping definitely out of modernity. Still, both expectations from policies, and policies themselves remain framed in modern terms, and are less and less efficient in grasping what really matters for people, as the pervasive sense of "losing ground" unveils. Inspired by Hannah Arendt's Human Condition and the Onlife Initiative, I shall propose some benchmarks to step in this forthcoming hyperconnected era with intelligence and confidence.

 

Nicole Dewandre is advisor for societal issues to the Director General of the Directorate General for Communications, Networks, Content and Technologies (DG CONNECT) at the European Commission. She studied applied physics engineering and economics at the University of Louvain, operations research at the University of California (Berkeley) and philosophy at the Free University of Brussels (ULB). She entered the European Commission in 1983. She worked in "science and society" issues (women and science, research and civil society), before being in charge of the "sustainable development" unit that has been put in place in DG Research between 2007 and 2010. She is now working on the societal interface of the Digital Agenda for Europe.

Cold storage

 

However much it enables us to ask new questions with an expanded set of tools, the digital is ultimately not about the digital. Rather it is about new ways of engaging and interacting with the world: it’s about extending our cognitive faculties and social existences; new ways to analyze and experience the past in the present; new ways to work, think, share, and enjoy; new ways to make things, even tradition-bound things like scholarly books. With this altered field the question of new genres and knowledge forms looms large and my keynote address will be concerned with an experiment with the interactive www-documentary form entitled Cold Storage. Cold Storage is an extension of a printed book (The Library Beyond the Book), the output of a research seminar built upon three years of work in metaLAB's Library Test Kitchen design studio, and a reworking/remixing of Alain Resnais's 1956 Toute la mémoire du monde (with the BNP swapped for the analog server farm known as the Harvard Depository).

 

Before moving to Harvard in 2011, Jeffrey T. Schnapp occupied the Pierotti Chair of Italian Studies at Stanford, where he founded and led the Stanford Humanities Lab in 1999. A cultural historian with research interests extending from antiquity to the present, his most recent books are The Electric Information Age Book, Modernitalia, Digital_Humanities, and The Library Beyond the Book. Faculty co-director of the Berkman Center for Internet and Society, he is Professor of Romance Languages & Literature and Comparative Literature and also on the teaching faculty in the Department of Architecture at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design. He is the founder and faculty director of metaLAB@Harvard.

 

 

Gérard Berry

Why Informatics Generates Mental Inversions

The digital revolution is often thought of as a technical revolution that impacts a wide variety of human activities. Using a variety of examples involving children as well as adults, we argue that its reach is far wider in the sense that it modifies or inverts many of our basic perceptions such as those of space and time, and explain why algorithmic thinking deeply changes many elementary ways of reflecting and acting in field as varied as science, engineering, medicine, and art.

Gérard Berry is a French computer scientist, member of the French Academy of Sciences, French Academy of Technologies and Academia Europaea. He was researcher at Ecole des Mines and Inria from 1973 to 2000 and the Chief Scientist Officer of the Esterel Technologies company from 2000 to 2009. He joined back Inria from 2009 to 2012. He held two yearly chair at Collège de France: Liliane Bettencourt chair of Technological Innovation in 2007-2008 and Informatics and Digital Sciences chair in 2008-2009. He is currently Professor at Collège de France where he holds the Algorithms, Machines and Languages chair since September 2012.

Research-Creation, Hexagram and Embodied Knowing in a Digital World

 

Although the word research increasingly surfaces in relationship to digitally-based art and design, there is much confusion over exactly what this term means, particularly in regards to institutions outside of academic contexts. In institutionalized settings, research signifies modes of acquiring new knowledge that coherently and systematically advance a field, is grounded, supported and adhered to by established methods and techniques and is validated by both social frameworks (peers) and already existing bodies of thought. This talk examines an emerging paradigm in Quebec and Canada (“Research-Creation”) that traverses both academic and cultural contexts together with an institutional “test site” (Hexagram, based in Montreal) that seeks to puts forward an integrated model of theory and practice, and experimentation and creation in which the interpretive disciplines (humanities and social science) are increasingly linked with creative ones (art and design) through the arena of new technologies. Since its founding in 2001, Hexagram’s network of researchers has been internationally recognized in developing theoretical and methodological strategies for understanding the role of research lead frameworks in creative art and design practices. Due to this, Hexagram is becoming the theoretical, methodological and practice-based reference in the emerging field of research-creation in Canada and provides an important case study and example of best practices in the growing interest in practice-based, embodied knowledge.

 

Chris Salter is an artist, Concordia University Research Chair in New Media, Technology and the Senses, Co-Director of Hexagram and Associate Professor for Design + Computation Arts at Concordia University in Montreal. He studied philosophy, economics, theatre and computer music at Emory and Stanford Universities. After collaborating with Peter Sellars and William Forsythe/Ballett Frankfurt, he co-founded and directed the art and research organization Sponge. His work has been seen all over the world at such venues as the Venice Architecture Biennale, Vitra Design Museum, National Art Museum of China, CTM, Ars Electronica, Meta.Morf in Norway, PACT Zollverein, Todays Art, Villette Numerique, EMPAC, Transmediale, EXIT Festival, Place des Arts, Elektra, Shanghai Dance Festival, V2_, among many others. He is the author of Entangled: Technology and the Transformation of Performance (MIT Press, 2010) and the forthcoming Alien Agency: Experimental Encounters with Art in the Making (MIT Press, 2015).

 

5.Carlo Ratti

 

Senseable Cities

The increasing deployment of sensors and hand-held electronics in recent years is allowing a new approach to the study of the built environment. The way we describe and understand cities is being radically transformed - alongside the tools we use to design them and impact on their physical structure. The contribution from Prof. Carlo Ratti will address these issues from a critical point of view through projects by the Senseable City Laboratory, a research initiative at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the design office Carlo Ratti Associati.

An architect and engineer by training, Carlo Ratti practices in Italy and teaches at the MIT, where he directs the Senseable City Lab. Ratti has co-authored over 250 publications and holds several patents. His work has been exhibited in several venues worldwide, including the Venice Biennale, MoMA in New York City and MAXXI in Rome. At the 2008 World Expo, his ‘Digital Water Pavilion’ was hailed by Time Magazine as one of the ‘Best Inventions of the Year’. He has been included in Blueprint Magazine's ‘25 People who will Change the World of Design’ and in Wired Magazine’s ‘Smart List 2012: 50 people who will change the world’. He is curator for the ‘Future Food District’ at Expo Milano 2015."

 

6.Serge Abiteboul

 

Turn your "digital self" into a knowledge base

A Web user today has his/her data and information distributed in a number of services that operate in silos. Computer wizards already know how to control their personal data to some extent. It is now becoming possible for everyone to do the same, and there are many advantages to doing so. Everyone should now be in a position to manage his/her personal information. Furthermore, we will argue that we should move towards personal knowledge bases and discuss advantages to do so.

Serge Abiteboul obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Southern California, and a State Doctoral Thesis from the University of Paris-Sud. He has been a researcher at Inria since 1982 and is now Distinguished Affiliated Professor at ENS Cachan. He was a Lecturer at the École Polytechnique and Visiting Professor at Stanford and Oxford University. He has been Chair Professor at Collège de France in 2011-12 and Francqui Chair Professor at Namur University in 2012-2013. He became a member of the French Academy of Sciences in 2008, and a member the Academy of Europe in 2011. Abiteboul's research work focuses mainly on data, information and knowledge management, particularly on the Web. He has recently started a blog about computer science (binaire.blog.lemonde.fr).
