When Computers Look at Art: Image Analysis in Humanistic Studies of the Visual Arts
What can computers reveal about images that even the best-trained connoisseurs, art historians and artists cannot? How do these computer methods work? How much more powerful and revealing will these methods become? In short, how is computer image analysis changing our understanding of art? This profusely illustrated lecture for non-scientists will include works by Jackson Pollack, Vincent van Gogh, Jan van Eyck, and others. You may never see paintings the same way again.
