My project aims to articulate and explore a phenomenology of formats in computational media, using a media philosophical approach to unveil and inscribe how visual computational forms and processes constrain and shape experience and appearance. To this end I make focused analyses of the smartphone homescreen, multimodal transformer/diffusion models for text-2-image generation, and automated aesthetic ratings in multimodal models (eg CLIP, Laion aesthetic). The work is interdisciplinary and spans media aesthetics, media philosophy, critical theory, aesthetics, phenomenology and media theory.
