Infrastructures of visuality – public discussion event

In the contemporary media society an implicit idea of 'the photographic' seems still to guide us: Visuals endowed with a photographic look are experienced and dealt with as if they would testify of a presence in front of a camera even though they may be result of computational processes. Paradoxically, if you see an image as a photograph, it is a photograph – for you. How do photographic technologies contribute to formatting our visual experience? This informal public discussion with the artists Suzanne Mooney, Stephen Cornford and Bruno Caldas is moderated by the curator of the Paradoxes of Photography exhibition Mika Elo. Other invited guests include Janne Seppänen, Jukka Häkkinen, Patricia Prieto-Blanco and Bence Nanay.

The event is in English. Free admission.
