Not Allowed for Algorithmic Audiences (2021)
禁止演算法觀眾 (2021)
I employ a variety of media in my practice seeking to explore the political, affective and environmental implications of technology.
藝術家在實踐中採用了各種媒體以探索政治、情感、環境影響下的科技,通過糅合詩意與科幻,專注於各種命題包括開發主義、監控、人與非人之間的關係、分佈式網絡以及基礎建設。 

A big number of audiences online nowadays is mainly algorithms. Algorithms are trained on the auditory information that is produced and uploaded by humans. In the video 'Not allowed for algorithmic audiences', an Intelligent Personal Assistant (IPA), situated in the extremely hot city of Athens in Greece, exhibits an odd behavior.

They borrow an avatar and appear before their users. For a brief period of time, for seven consecutive days before they shut down forever and end up in an e-waste, the IPA goes into seven monologues. During their length of operation, they have managed to scan the entire contents of the Internet and gather all sorts of information, information that they long to share. The IPA uses their seven brief monologues as an opportunity to introduce themselves, talk about their skills, their ancestors, their anatomy and origins, and about voice and its significance. They reveal data regarding the listening infrastructure as well as the social dysfunctions on which their programming and operation are based. Just before they reach the end of their monologues, in a final effort to reconcile humans and machines, they share tips with humans on how they can manage… not to be heard by algorithms.

In her project, Kyriaki Goni, integrates in a fictional narrative the current wealth of research on artificial intelligence and voice interfaces, as well as the relationship between humans and machines. Listening infrastructures, surveillance and the climate crisis are also part of this narration. Could poetics be a way for us to understand the machines? Can we de-bias the training processes? Is it possible to make kin with the machines?

通過網站、繪畫、紡織、錄像、聲音、文字等呈現方法,她的裝置創建了一種另類的生態系統與共享經驗,將本地與地球、科與幻之間聯通感動。她在希臘雅典土生土長,在這個東西交滙之處以及歐洲邊緣之地生活,她一直把個人的生活經驗注入其研究與作品之中。

現今網上大批的觀眾其實主要都是演算法 (又可稱由電腦使用的計算程式);演算法是根據人類產生和上傳的聽覺訊息所訓練出來的。在作品《禁止演算法觀眾》中,在希臘的雅典,一個極熱的城市中,智能私人助理 (IPA)表現出一種奇怪的行為。

IPA在被永久停機並成為電子垃圾之前,借用了頭像出現在用戶面前,連續七天進行了七段獨白。在他們運作的時候已經成功掃描了整個互聯網的內容,並且收集了各種的資訊,現在渴望分享。他們用這七段獨白去介紹自己,談及他們的技能、祖先、他們的骨骼起源、以及關於他們的聲線與差異。他們揭示了有關收聽基礎設施的數據,以及基於電腦程式和運作而帶來的社會功能障礙。就在他們的獨白結束之前,他們盡最後的努力去調和人類和機器,對人類提出「如何不被機器聽見」的建議。

藝術家在作品中建構一個虛擬的故事,並整合了當前關於人工智能與語音界面的大量研究資料,探討著人機之間的關係,而至於收聽基礎設施、監聽和氣候危機也是故事的一部份。請想想,我們是否可以透過詩學去理解機器?我們能否在訓練過種中去掉偏見?是不是真的可以與機器建立關係?
