Nicolas Henchoz’s talk, “Curator-AI collaboration: Revealing the secrets of a digital poster collection” will take you behind the scenes of Poster World. The project, which brought together experts in curation, design, and machine learning, had the unique challenge to bring the digitised poster archive of Zurich’s Museum für Gestaltung to life. The talk will take you through the design of the interactive museum installation the EPFL+ECAL Lab designed to showcase this rich and under-accessed collection. Nicolas will explain the techniques used to combine curatorial expertise with artificial intelligence in order to balance the potential of new digital tools with expressive human narrative. He’ll also share insights into how the team were able generate both cognitive and emotional impact for both graphic design experts and the general public.
