Season one,\u00a0<em>Under The Hood<\/em>,\u00a0looks at the technical processes and economic and social structures of production that profoundly shape visual culture. Our first season considers the museum without images; the effusive \u201cstudent body\u201d; labor history; \u201cthe factory of phenomena,\u201d the paradigmatic worksite of contemporary media culture; and much more.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In order to understand how imaging strategies produce the aesthetic effects that we frequently and unconsciously observe in the world, we must first understand the infrastructure for how these images are made, or go \u201cunder the hood.\u201d The way visual culture comes to be constructed is at the center of these investigations: the real-time simulations and the skeletal rigs that form the underwire of thrashing corpses, the labor laws which structure capitalist workflows, the technologically dependent student body, the visible signature of video art tropes and their affective contours, many of which have become increasingly prevalent. All of these examples belie their beginning as metrics, inputs, algorithms, and other coding languages assigned by animators, programmers, and policymakers. The images produced by these original technical apparatuses thus introduce a new level of estrangement wherein the major referent is no longer the physical world, but the technical culture behind the curtain.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Online: RTRU Season 1 launch Under The Hood https:\/\/www.rtru.org &nbsp; RTRU Season 1 contributors\/participants:\u00a0Dana Kopel\u00a0(New York),\u00a0Eltons K\u016bns\u00a0(Riga),\u00a0Rio Roye\u00a0(New York),\u00a0L\u012bga Spunde\u00a0(Riga),\u00a0Candice Strongwater\u00a0(New York),\u00a0Alise Tifentale\u00a0(New York\/Riga),\u00a0Viktor Timofeev\u00a0(New York), and\u00a0Jessica Wilson\u00a0(New York). &nbsp; Part research journal, part art and writing publisher, part hub for developments in emerging media, RTRU brings an interdisciplinary and technicity-centered approach to the status [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7243","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-kim-events","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Online: Riga Technoculture Reaserch Unit (RTRU) Season 1 launch: \u201cUnder The Hood\u201d - Kim?
