Late Breakfast with Doringer III: Aesthetics of Exclusion

Social Design Studio
The event is created by Q21 and Site Specific Art and Bogomir are added as “hosts” of the event. 

Aesthetics of Exclusion is a collective of artists, designers, coders and scientists that uses computer vision techniques and machine learning to explore and analyse aesthetical styles that relate to gentrification and processes of (urban) homogenisation through large image archives such as (Google) StreetView and Instagram.

It aims to study the visual patterns of gentrification: an urban phenomenon that is reflected in the decrease of diversity in classes, ethnicities, races, sexualities, languages, and points of view from central city neighbourhoods; and their replacement by more homogeneous groups. While a lot of research has focused on the socio-economic causes and effects of this process, its aesthetics have remained understudied.  Computation present new opportunities to research ‘the visual’ on a large scale and make it possible to question, explore and document processes of urban homogenisation.
