Now that I've moved to @tldr.nettime, maybe I should rehash my #introduction:
Hi everyone, my name is Roland, I am Berlin-based media and visual culture scholar interested in the history, theory, and aesthetics of #operativeimages. Among other stuff, I have written on the (pre-)history of #facialrecognition & its contemporary implications.
Currently, I am a researcher at the Bochum SFB »Virtual Lifeworlds«, working in a project on virtual #imagearchives. Besides that, am also interested in #imagegeneration, #imageforensics, and #urbansignage.
