Zusammenfassung:Brings together Film Studies and Artificial Intelligence by exploring their mutual interest in the automation of vision through technologyTheorises and critiques computational methods in the analysis of film and televisionRevisits key theories of the moving image and photography in the light of contemporary developments in AI and computer vision technologiesContributes to debates concerning early cinema, experimental cinema, and use of moving image archives, through critical-technical practicesTheorises the emergence of synthetic media and generative approaches in computational humanitiesCinema and Machine Vision unfolds the aesthetic, epistemic, and ideological dimensions of machine-seeing films and television using computers. With its critical-technical approach, this book presents to the reader key new problems that arise as AI becomes integral to visual culture. It theorises machine through a selection of aesthetics, film theory, and applied machine learning research, dispelling widely held assumptions about computer systems designed to watch and make images on our behalf.At its heart, Cinema and Machine Vision is an invitation for film and media scholars to critically engage with AI at a technical level, a prompt for scientists and engineers working with images and cultural data to critically reflect on where their assumptions about vision come from, and a joint recognition of the fruitful problems of working together to understand the algorithmic governance of the visual
