Training The Archive

This publication summarizes the results of the research project initiated at Ludwig Forum Aachen (2020–2023) in collaboration with HMKV Hartware MedienKunstVerein, Dortmund and RWTH Aachen University. Training the Archive gathers transcripts of interviews with experts from the field of artificial intelligence, a collection of material on the research process, and critical texts written especially for the volume. The project placed particular emphasis on the transfer of machine learning to curatorial practice and on questioning to what extent the emerging algorithmic models can support the exploration of museum collections.
