Overview


The relationship between technology and humans, particularly in the context of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and surveillance, was the focus of my bachelor's degree in Philosophy and my master's degree in Communications. My theoretical interests centered on thinkers like Herbert Marcuse and Walter Benjamin. Marcuse's theory on the aesthetic dimension sought to address the problem of form and content by integrating ideas from Marx and Freud. Benjamin's concept of the sensorium, though not frequently mentioned in his writings, is a powerful lens for understanding his analysis of the relationship between humans and technology, especially in the realm of visual technologies as aesthetic experiences.

During my second master's degree in Digital Humanities, I had the opportunity to engage with both theoretical and practical approaches to exploring the relationship between humans and machines, with a particular focus on classification models in artificial neural networks. Now, as a PhD student in Computational Media, Arts, and Cultures at Duke University, I am pursuing a philosophical inquiry into the epistemological and ontological dimensions of classification.

My research focuses on the data classification practices employed in artificial neural network technologies. I am particularly interested in the intersection of philosophy, practical reflections on adversarial technologies, visual studies, and machine learning onto-epistemologies.
