Through the eyes of AI: Historical 3D pictures from Linz

Dr. Walter Schuster (AT), Ali Nikrang (AT)

We present photographs taken around 1900 with a special camera using two lenses that have a distance roughly equal to that of the human eye. The images show panoramic views, well-known buildings and everyday scenes in Linz and the surrounding area at the time. As the original images are in black and white, we use AI technology to identify the correct colors for each pixel in the image. The result can be seen in high resolution in Deep Space 8K.

Where we emerge

Art & Technology Studies Department of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (US)

This year the Art and Technology Studies (ATS) department of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) presents the work of its community through a series of online and in-person events. The ATS garden seeks to engage in a multidisciplinary dialogue and become a physical and virtual space where the SAIC and the Chicago communities can reflect on our roles in this digital world and rethink ways to engage with these digital systems.
