3/ First, information is physical or more precisely it is physically embodied. Information is not a thing; rather, it is the arrangement of physical things. It is not an amorphous soup of atoms but physical order.
Trevor Paglen closing off a fascinating day at #waysofknowingcities with a talk on invisible images, kittens, vampires, Socialist realism, and a topping of Magritte 🥪
‘Machine realism’ is an aesthetic model defined by autonomous attribution of meaning to images in the service of capital - it only sees those parts of the image that can be translated into capital. -@trevorpaglen #waysofknowingcities
“The meanings of images are social and political constructs subject to change” - @trevorpaglen #waysofknowingcities

Manan Ahmed moderates a discussion on migration and borders between Lorenzo Pezzani and Sebastian Cobarrubias #waysofknowingcities
Lorenzo Pezzani on forensic oceanography "we need a nomadic solidarity so that can we take the tools that we use to criticise and navigate hostile maritime borders and apply them to cities to understand urban hostility to migrants." #waysofknowingcities
"There is a process of design in the making deadly of deserts" and other borders, including cities. But this process extends to surveillance and aesthetics - environments are made hostile and aware. Lorenzo Pezzani's Forensic Oceanography at #waysofknowingcities
Working from @columbialib and livestreaming #waysofknowingcities makes for one interesting #Friday "it will always come back to Tobler and the notion of nearness" + "the 24 hour day is a zero sum game" @lmeisterlin [Cartographies of Cities] #gsappGIS @ColumbiaGSAPP
