Dear AoIR colleagues, I wanted to forward and highlight Sophia's email about this event in case you didn't see it -- I don't think it was sent to this list. Many of you who work on surveillance will already be familiar with Adam Harvey's totally amazing CV Dazzle anti-face-detection makeup / hairstyles ( https://adam.harvey.studio/cvdazzle/) or perhaps his HyperFace obfuscation fabric (https://adam.harvey.studio/hyperface/). He has some thrilling newer projects about machine learning data provenance and the use of computer vision for human rights problems -- such as landmine detection. It is possible to participate online from anywhere in the world, and the talk timing is good for Europe. I hope you will join us. Also: In case you see this email late, it is OK to RSVP immediately before the Zoom event starts or even after it has started. This will still work. Sincerely, Christian Sandvig Co-Director, Center for Ethics, Society, and Computing (ESC) H.
