In this course

Søren Brier is a Danish cyberneticist and semiotician who develops cybersemiotic frameworks for understanding sign processes, perception, and meaning-making in interactive systems—critical for analyzing how AI and ubiquitous computing reshape human-computer encounters beyond purely technical dimensions. Jacques draws on Brier's work to conceptualize the "hybrid environment" where artist, spectator, and medium co-generate meaning through embodied cognition and semiosis, extending Duchamp's interactive model into computational contexts where perception itself becomes a dynamic, recursive process. His emphasis on spatiality, temporality, and complex sign systems allows the course to theorize interactive AI art and cyberperceptual design as philosophical problems, not merely engineering challenges.
