AI and Digital Media Aesthetics at the Center for Digital Narrative, University of Bergen, Norway

Next week I’ll give a talk at the Center for Digital Narrative at the University of Bergen titled “Your perspective is quite insightful”: Deconstructing the Endless Engagement Aesthetics of AI Platforms. I’ll be sharing some in-progress work I’m looking at AI feed patterns on TikTok and affective affirming speech patterns in ChatGPT, examining both for the ways they induce platform engagement, and more broadly how they contribute to a wider aesthetics of endless growth.

The session includes many other talks. Here’s a full description of the session.
