...or what’s up in the data world? Machine learning, neural networks or artificial intelligence are increasingly popular slogans. What do they mean in practice and why should they be looked at in more detail? We are living in times when the number of generated data is growing exponentially, while more and more companies claim to have developed yet another revolutionary self-learning algorithm. Does this really mean that we on the verge of a breakthrough in artificial intelligence, though?

Rediscovering the City conference serves to present different ways to study, describe, explore, discover and reclaim the city.
The exhibition is the result of a Medialab Katowice educational and research project which consisted of several lectures and workshops. It refers to the activities of the Isotype Institute and the universal visual language created in Vienna in the 1920s. The exhibition is devoid of the traditional historical narrative, which usually puts the focus on important historical figures, political events or wars. Instead, it uses diagrams, maps and data visualisations to illustrate the rapid transformations of Katowice.
