I'm an artist and an engineer.
0
12887
2396
Umjetnica sam i inženjerka.
00:15
And lately, I've been thinking a lot about how technology mediates
1
15307
5774
U posljednje vrijeme često mislim o tome kako tehnologija utječe
00:21
the way we perceive reality.
2
21105
2041
na našu percepciju stvarnosti.
00:23
And it's being done in a superinvisible and nuanced way.
3
23653
4640
I to se odvija na super nevidljivi i precizan način.
00:29
Technology is designed to shape our sense of reality
4
29260
3646
Tehnologija je dizajnirana za oblikovanje našeg osjećaja stvarnosti
00:32
by masking itself as the actual experience of the world.
5
32930
3811
pod krinkom stvarnog iskustva svijeta.
00:37
As a result, we are becoming unconscious and unaware
6
37430
4686
Kao rezultat, nismo niti svjesni i zanemarujemo
00:42
that it is happening at all.
7
42140
2185
da se to uopće događa.
00:45
Take the glasses I usually wear, for example.
8
45360
2488
Za primjer uzmimo naočale koje obično nosim.
00:47
These have become part of the way I ordinarily experience my surroundings.
9
47872
4024
Postale su dio mog uobičajenog iskustva okoline.
00:52
I barely notice them,
10
52352
1490
Jedva da ih i primijetim,
00:53
even though they are constantly framing reality for me.
11
53866
4085
bez obzira na to što stalno uokviruju moju stvarnost.
00:58
The technology I am talking about is designed to do the same thing:
12
58447
4016
Tehnologija o kojoj govorim dizajnirana je za isto to:
01:02
change what we see and think
13
62487
2438
promjenu onoga što vidimo i mislimo,
01:04
but go unnoticed.
14
64949
1760
no bez da to primijetimo.
01:07
Now, the only time I do notice my glasses
15
67780
3269
Svoje naočale primjećujem jedino
01:11
is when something happens to draw my attention to it,
16
71073
3258
kada nešto na njih usmjeri moju pažnju,
01:14
like when it gets dirty or my prescription changes.
17
74355
3514
kada se zaprljaju ili se moj recept promijeni.
01:18
So I asked myself, "As an artist, what can I create
18
78481
4608
Upitala sam se: "Kao umjetnica, što mogu stvoriti
01:23
to draw the same kind of attention
19
83113
2447
kako bih usmjerila istu vrstu pažnje
01:25
to the ways digital media -- like news organizations, social media platforms,
20
85584
6171
na način na koji digitalni mediji -- kao novinske agencije, društveni mediji,
01:31
advertising and search engines --
21
91779
2261
mehanizmi za pretraživanje i oglašavanje --
01:34
are shaping our reality?"
22
94064
2014
oblikuju našu stvarnost?"
01:36
So I created a series of perceptual machines
23
96798
4772
Izradila sam seriju percepcijskih uređaja
01:41
to help us defamiliarize and question
24
101594
3566
koji će nam pomoći odmaknuti se i preispitati
01:45
the ways we see the world.
25
105184
2120
načine na koje vidimo svijet.
01:48
For example, nowadays, many of us have this kind of allergic reaction
26
108859
6033
Na primjer, mnogi od nas danas imaju vrstu alergijske reakcije
01:54
to ideas that are different from ours.
27
114916
2493
na ideje koje se razlikuju od naših.
01:57
We may not even realize that we've developed this kind of mental allergy.
28
117945
5656
Možda nismo ni primijetili da smo razvili ovu vrstu mentalne alergije.
02:04
So I created a helmet that creates this artificial allergy to the color red.
29
124596
5643
Izradila sam kacigu koja ovu umjetnu alergiju označava crvenom bojom.
02:10
It simulates this hypersensitivity by making red things look bigger
30
130263
4453
Simulira hiperosjetljivost tako da prividno čini crveno većim
02:14
when you are wearing it.
31
134740
1280
kada je nosite.
02:16
It has two modes: nocebo and placebo.
32
136730
3558
Ima dva načina: nocebo i placebo.
02:21
In nocebo mode, it creates this sensorial experience of hyperallergy.
33
141272
5357
U načinu nocebo, stvara osjetilno iskustvo hiperalergije.
02:26
Whenever I see red, the red expands.
34
146653
2707
Kad god vidim crveno, ono se proširi.
02:30
It's similar to social media's amplification effect,
35
150062
3531
Slično je efektu pojačavanja na društvenim medijima,
02:33
like when you look at something that bothers you,
36
153617
2597
kao kad vidite nešto što vam smeta,
02:36
you tend to stick with like-minded people
37
156238
2928
obično se priklanjate istomišljenicima
02:39
and exchange messages and memes, and you become even more angry.
38
159190
4595
i razmjenjujete poruke i memove, postajući sve ljući.
02:44
Sometimes, a trivial discussion gets amplified
39
164274
3662
Ponekad se beznačajna rasprava pojača
02:47
and blown way out of proportion.
40
167960
2401
i raširi preko svake mjere.
02:51
Maybe that's even why we are living in the politics of anger.
41
171038
4520
Možda je to i razlog što živimo politiku bijesa.
02:56
In placebo mode, it's an artificial cure for this allergy.
42
176756
3415
U načinu placebo, tu je umjetni lijek za ovu alergiju.
03:00
Whenever you see red, the red shrinks.
43
180575
2292
Kada god vidite crveno, ono se smanjuje.
03:03
It's a palliative, like in digital media.
44
183617
2875
Palijativno je, kao digitalni mediji.
03:06
When you encounter people with different opinions,
45
186516
2899
Kad susretnete ljude različitog mišljenja,
03:09
we will unfollow them,
46
189439
1477
prestat ćete ih pratiti,
03:10
remove them completely out of our feeds.
47
190940
2748
potpuno ih ukloniti iz svojih novosti.
03:14
It cures this allergy by avoiding it.
48
194343
3203
Liječi alergiju izbjegavajući je.
03:17
But this way of intentionally ignoring opposing ideas
49
197570
4547
Ovakvo namjerno ignoriranje suprotnih ideja
03:22
makes human community hyperfragmented and separated.
50
202141
4056
ljudsku zajednicu čini hiperfragmentiranom i razdvojenom.
03:27
The device inside the helmet reshapes reality
51
207343
3059
Uređaj u kacigi mijenja oblik stvarnosti
03:30
and projects into our eyes through a set of lenses
52
210426
2950
i projektira ga na naše oči putem kompleta leća
03:33
to create an augmented reality.
53
213400
1915
te stvara proširenu stvarnost.
03:35
I picked the color red, because it's intense and emotional,
54
215935
4782
Crvenu sam odabrala zbog njezinog intenziteta i emocije,
03:40
it has high visibility
55
220741
1958
vrlo je vidljiva
03:42
and it's political.
56
222723
1278
i politička je.
03:44
So what if we take a look
57
224390
1263
Što ako pogledamo
03:45
at the last American presidential election map
58
225677
3049
mapu posljednjih američkih predsjedničkih izbora
03:48
through the helmet?
59
228750
1165
kroz kacigu?
03:49
(Laughter)
60
229939
1008
(Smijeh)
03:50
You can see that it doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or a Republican,
61
230971
3573
Vidjet ćete da nije važno jeste li demokrat ili republikanac
03:54
because the mediation alters our perceptions.
62
234568
3989
jer medijacija mijenja naša shvaćanja.
03:58
The allergy exists on both sides.
63
238581
3133
Alergija postoji s obje strane.
04:03
In digital media,
64
243134
1320
U digitalnim medijima,
04:04
what we see every day is often mediated,
65
244478
3133
ono što vidimo svaki dan često je posredovano,
04:07
but it's also very nuanced.
66
247635
1733
ali i vrlo nijansirano.
04:09
If we are not aware of this,
67
249758
1995
Ako toga nismo svjesni,
04:11
we will keep being vulnerable to many kinds of mental allergies.
68
251777
5405
i dalje ćemo biti osjetljivi na mnoge mentalne alergije.
04:18
Our perception is not only part of our identities,
69
258900
3510
Naša percepcija nije samo dio našeg identiteta,
04:22
but in digital media, it's also a part of the value chain.
70
262434
4294
u digitalnim medijima ona je i dio lanca vrijednosti.
04:27
Our visual field is packed with so much information
71
267992
3575
Naše je vizualno polje prepunjeno tolikim informacijama
04:31
that our perception has become a commodity with real estate value.
72
271591
5512
i naša je percepcija postala proizvod s vrijednošću nekretnine.
04:38
Designs are used to exploit our unconscious biases,
73
278035
3529
Dizajnima se iskorištavaju naše nesvjesne pristranosti,
04:41
algorithms favor content that reaffirms our opinions,
74
281588
3480
algoritmi favoriziraju sadržaj koji potvrđuje naše mišljenje,
04:45
so that every little corner of our field of view is being colonized
75
285092
4191
a svaki mali kutak našeg vidnog polja kolonizira se
04:49
to sell ads.
76
289307
1342
za prodaju oglasa.
04:51
Like, when this little red dot comes out in your notifications,
77
291402
4017
Kao kada se crvena točkica pojavi u vašim obavijestima,
04:55
it grows and expands, and to your mind, it's huge.
78
295443
4244
raste i širi se, što je za vaš um ogromno.
05:00
So I started to think of ways to put a little dirt,
79
300571
3361
Tako sam počela razmišljati o načinima prljanja
05:03
or change the lenses of my glasses,
80
303956
2698
ili promjene leća na naočalama
05:06
and came up with another project.
81
306678
2098
i dosjetila se novog projekta.
05:09
Now, keep in mind this is conceptual. It's not a real product.
82
309423
3801
Imajte na umu da je ovo samo koncept. Nije pravi proizvod.
05:13
It's a web browser plug-in
83
313676
2073
Radi se o programskom dodatku za pretraživač
05:15
that could help us to notice the things that we would usually ignore.
84
315773
4342
koji bi nam pomogao primijetiti stvari koje inače ignoriramo.
05:20
Like the helmet, the plug-in reshapes reality,
85
320709
3770
Kao kaciga, i dodatak mijenja oblik stvarnosti,
05:24
but this time, directly into the digital media itself.
86
324503
3397
no ovaj put izravno, u samom digitalnom mediju.
05:29
It shouts out the hidden filtered voices.
87
329066
3156
Izvikuje skrivene filtrirane glasove.
05:32
What you should be noticing now
88
332246
1573
Ono što bismo trebali primijetiti
05:33
will be bigger and vibrant,
89
333843
2509
postajat će veće i jače,
05:36
like here, this story about gender bias emerging from the sea of cats.
90
336376
4295
kao u ovoj priči o pristranosti na temelju spola koja se pojavljuje u moru mačaka.
05:40
(Laughter)
91
340695
2021
(Smijeh)
05:42
The plug-in could dilute the things that are being amplified by an algorithm.
92
342740
5417
Programski dodatak može razrijediti sve što algoritam pojačava.
05:48
Like, here in this comment section,
93
348831
1696
U ovom odjeljku s komentarima,
05:50
there are lots of people shouting about the same opinions.
94
350551
3069
mnogo se ljudi nadvikuje o istim mišljenjima.
05:54
The plug-in makes their comments super small.
95
354111
2870
Dodatak će njihove komentare učiniti super malima.
05:57
(Laughter)
96
357005
1008
(Smijeh)
05:58
So now the amount of pixel presence they have on the screen
97
358037
5251
Sada je količina piksela koje imaju na zaslonu
06:03
is proportional to the actual value they are contributing to the conversation.
98
363312
4554
proporcionalna stvarnoj vrijednosti kojom doprinose razgovoru.
06:07
(Laughter)
99
367890
1942
(Smijeh)
06:11
(Applause)
100
371345
3631
(Pljesak)
06:16
The plug-in also shows the real estate value of our visual field
101
376919
4061
Dodatak pokazuje i vrijednost nekretnine našeg vidnog polja
06:21
and how much of our perception is being commoditized.
102
381004
3456
i koliko se naše percepcije pojednostavljuju.
06:24
Different from ad blockers,
103
384912
1589
Za razliku od blokatora oglasa,
06:26
for every ad you see on the web page,
104
386525
2472
za svaki oglas koji vidite na web stranici
06:29
it shows the amount of money you should be earning.
105
389021
3407
prikazuje se iznos novca koji biste trebali zarađivati.
06:32
(Laughter)
106
392452
1245
(Smijeh)
06:34
We are living in a battlefield between reality
107
394356
2292
Živimo na bojištu između stvarnosti
06:36
and commercial distributed reality,
108
396672
2253
i komercijalno raspoređene stvarnosti,
06:39
so the next version of the plug-in could strike away that commercial reality
109
399329
5086
a sljedeća verzija dodatka mogla bi ukloniti tu komercijalnu stvarnost
06:44
and show you things as they really are.
110
404439
2799
i pokazati vam stvari kakvima zaista jesu.
06:47
(Laughter)
111
407262
1791
(Smijeh)
06:50
(Applause)
112
410335
3629
(Pljesak)
06:55
Well, you can imagine how many directions this could really go.
113
415179
3612
Možete zamisliti u koliko bi smjerova ovo moglo ići.
06:58
Believe me, I know the risks are high if this were to become a real product.
114
418815
4414
Vjerujte mi, znam da je rizik velik za pretvaranje ovoga u stvarni proizvod.
07:04
And I created this with good intentions
115
424006
2939
I ovo sam stvorila s dobrim namjerama
07:06
to train our perception and eliminate biases.
116
426969
3837
za treniranje naše svijesti i uklanjanje pristranosti.
07:10
But the same approach could be used with bad intentions,
117
430830
3728
No isti pristup može se koristiti i s lošim namjerama,
07:14
like forcing citizens to install a plug-in like that
118
434582
3205
kao što je prisiljavanje građana da instaliraju takav dodatak
07:17
to control the public narrative.
119
437811
2126
kako bi se kontroliralo javno mnijenje.
07:20
It's challenging to make it fair and personal
120
440768
2737
Izazov je napraviti ga poštenim i osobnim
07:23
without it just becoming another layer of mediation.
121
443529
3155
bez da postane samo još jedan sloj medijacije.
07:27
So what does all this mean for us?
122
447933
2662
Što onda to sve znači za nas?
07:31
Even though technology is creating this isolation,
123
451230
3733
Iako tehnologija stvara izolaciju,
07:34
we could use it to make the world connected again
124
454987
3602
mogli bismo je koristiti za ponovno povezivanje svijeta
07:38
by breaking the existing model and going beyond it.
125
458613
3247
rušenjem postojećeg modela i rastom iznad njega.
07:42
By exploring how we interface with these technologies,
126
462508
3338
Istražujući načine na koje se povezujemo ovim tehnologijama,
07:45
we could step out of our habitual, almost machine-like behavior
127
465870
5185
možemo izaći iz našeg uobičajenog, skoro robotskog ponašanja
07:51
and finally find common ground between each other.
128
471079
2670
i konačno pronaći zajedničko tlo jedni s drugima.
07:54
Technology is never neutral.
129
474915
1789
Tehnologija nikad nije neutralna.
07:57
It provides a context and frames reality.
130
477191
3019
Daje kontekst i uokviruje stvarnost.
08:00
It's part of the problem and part of the solution.
131
480234
2888
Dio je problema, ali i dio rješenja.
08:03
We could use it to uncover our blind spots and retrain our perception
132
483624
5640
Mogla bi se koristiti za otkrivanje mrtvih točaka i treniranje svijesti
08:09
and consequently, choose how we see each other.
133
489949
3506
te posljedično, za odabir načina na koji vidimo jedni druge.
08:13
Thank you.
134
493892
1191
Hvala vam.
08:15
