Produktbeschreibung
Agnieszka Kurant: Collective Intelligence is an innovative monograph of the acclaimed artist’s work covering the past ten years. The book explores Kurant’s interdisciplinary practice, which is focussed on collective intelligence - a phenomenon observed in bacteria, animals, social movements, internet, cities, and inside our brains - where novel forms emerge in unpredictable ways out of interactions between thousands of elements or agents in a complex system. It examines from different perspectives the topic of collective intelligence in nature and culture; non-human intelligence (animal, bacterial, Artificial Intelligence); the exploitations of social capital under surveillance capitalism; automation; artificial life, fictions as building blocks of social reality; and the future of labour and creativity in the 21st century.
