Abstract
Data / Set / Match is an extended curatorial project seeking new ways to present, visualise and interrogate contemporary image datasets, running from 01 Apr 2019 - 31 Oct 2020
Departing from traditional 19th and 20th century taxonomies used to organise and store images, the project explores the effect that digital technology has had on these systems, and how new categorisations increasingly influence the way humans and machines see and understand the world.
Data/Set/Match aims to draw attention to canonical machine vision datasets and explore their creation, influence and uses. At the same time, the programme will connect the image dataset to historical photographic discourses of the archive, truth and power.
Commissions, texts and discursive events are collected at: https://thephotographersgallery.org.uk/data-set-match
