Faces of ImageNet is a warning about the dangers of artificial intelligence with reference to the ImageNet databases, a collection of more than 14 million images divided into around 20,000 categories and used in artificial intelligence learning and computer vision algorithms. The interactive installation captures the face of the participants placed before a camera and projects the tags that the ImageNet learning algorithms use to classify them onto the façade. The result is not always flattering and can reveal the biases, prejudices, racism and pseudoscientific premises that run through many artificial intelligence systems.

Sight Machine is a live perfomance collaboration between Kronos Quartet and Trevor Paglen.
While Kronos performs works by Terry Riley, Laurie Anderson, Steve Reich, Islam Chipsy and others, the musicians are monitored by cameras feeding into a suite of Artificial Intelligence algorithms.
Images of what the machines “see” while looking at the performers are projected onto a screen behind the performers.
Sight Machine was performed at Pier 70 (San Francisco, 2017), Holland Festival (Amsterdam, 2018), Smithsonian American Art Museum (Washington D.C. 2018), and Barbican Centre (London, 2019).
