Employing methodologies rooted in critical pedagogy, Bruno Moreschi crafted an immersive experience for the “seers” who participate in this film. Leading experts from around the world received printed postcards by mail featuring some images used to train IA/ Computer Vision, while crowd workers who tag these images participated in several experimental reading and conversation sessions. The culmination is a visual odyssey that invites speculation on novel approaches to image comprehension, advocating for a paradigm shift in computer training methods towards more nuanced, human-centric perspectives.
Part of the methodology applied in the film was discussed in this article:
