In the broadest of terms, if you fall on the right, it’s called “cancel culture”—a merciless, life-ruining takedown of fallible human beings. On the left, it’s called “consequence culture”—wrongdoers being held accountable for their own awful behavior. Now, a new documentary called \u003ci>\u003ca href=\"https://www.hbomax.com/coming-soon/15-minutes-of-shame\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">15 Minutes of Shame\u003c/a>\u003c/i>—executive produced by Monica Lewinsky and directed by Max Joseph—is here to fill out the space in between. And it is a thoroughly enlightening, if anxiety-inducing, watch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lewinsky’s involvement here is key. In the film’s introduction, she refers to herself as “Patient Zero of having a reputation completely destroyed, worldwide, because of the internet.” And while that is an accurate assessment, \u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> is not here to tell you the unfettered power of the internet is an exclusively bad thing. If anything, its end goal is to insert into these narratives the thing that is so often missing on the internet: humanity in all of its shades of gray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhJrnNdH-aw\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Jon Ronson’s excellent 2015 book, \u003cem>So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed\u003c/em>, \u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> focuses not on humiliated celebrities, but rather a handful of everyday people whose lives have been decimated by their online characterizations. There’s Matt Colvin, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/14/technology/coronavirus-purell-wipes-amazon-sellers.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the guy who bought up 17,700 bottles of hand sanitizer\u003c/a> at the start of the pandemic. There’s Emmanuel Cafferty, a Latino employee of San Diego Gas and Electric who lost his job after a member of the public accused him of making a white power hand gesture. And there’s Laura Krolczyk, who, in a fit of frustration with COVID deniers, wrote on her Facebook page: “Trump supporters need to pledge to give up their ventilators for someone else.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='arts_10583072']The documentary allows each of these figures some space to explain themselves, but the point is not to vindicate them. The point is to take a deep dive into the cultural, social and psychological drivers behind internet take-downs. And it’s in those moments that \u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> does its most interesting work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The documentary sketches a fascinating “brief history of public shaming,” starting at the dawn of civilization, running through the introduction of the pillory, and then onto the invention of the printing press, tabloids and, finally, the internet. At one point, while talking about punishments doled out in town squares hundreds of years ago, cultural historian Dr. Tiffany Watt says: “This is a person who is suffering because they’ve done something wrong. And we have to punish them in order to tell everyone else not to do the same thing.” It’s clear in that moment the impulse to publicly shame is a thread that’s been present throughout history, and that the internet is merely the latest conduit for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> excels when discussing the psychology behind internet pile-ons. UCSF neuroscientist and psychologist Dr. Helen Weng explains why it’s harder for our brains to recognize people as full humans when we can’t see their faces and body language. Watt shares that one study of soccer fans found they felt a greater sense of joy from seeing rival teams fail than they did from seeing their own teams score. “What that showed,” Watt notes, “is that we enjoy seeing other people fail more than we enjoy winning, ourselves.” Being divided into “rival tribes,” Watt adds, “is a very, very dangerous place for a society to be in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cultural commentators throughout \u003cem>15 Minutes of Shame\u003c/em> offer up similarly thought-provoking analysis. Segments with Roxane Gay perfectly encapsulate the struggles of online discourse. On one hand, Gay talks about why fighting back online is so necessary. “People are so unseen and so unheard and they’ve been so unrepresented for so long, and you see something done about it. That is incredibly satisfying.” On the other hand, Gay acknowledges the deep flaws of the format. “People love to say … ‘I am not responsible for dehumanizing the person, the internet is,’” she notes. “The internet is there, but we are responsible for the ways in which we dehumanize each other.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> also takes the time to find out how tech companies are complicit in that dehumanization.

In the broadest of terms, if you fall on the right, it’s called “cancel culture”—a merciless, life-ruining takedown of fallible human beings. On the left, it’s called “consequence culture”—wrongdoers being held accountable for their own awful behavior. Now, a new documentary called \u003ci>\u003ca href=\"https://www.hbomax.com/coming-soon/15-minutes-of-shame\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">15 Minutes of Shame\u003c/a>\u003c/i>—executive produced by Monica Lewinsky and directed by Max Joseph—is here to fill out the space in between. And it is a thoroughly enlightening, if anxiety-inducing, watch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lewinsky’s involvement here is key. In the film’s introduction, she refers to herself as “Patient Zero of having a reputation completely destroyed, worldwide, because of the internet.” And while that is an accurate assessment, \u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> is not here to tell you the unfettered power of the internet is an exclusively bad thing. If anything, its end goal is to insert into these narratives the thing that is so often missing on the internet: humanity in all of its shades of gray.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/dhJrnNdH-aw'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/dhJrnNdH-aw'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Like Jon Ronson’s excellent 2015 book, \u003cem>So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed\u003c/em>, \u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> focuses not on humiliated celebrities, but rather a handful of everyday people whose lives have been decimated by their online characterizations. There’s Matt Colvin, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/14/technology/coronavirus-purell-wipes-amazon-sellers.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the guy who bought up 17,700 bottles of hand sanitizer\u003c/a> at the start of the pandemic. There’s Emmanuel Cafferty, a Latino employee of San Diego Gas and Electric who lost his job after a member of the public accused him of making a white power hand gesture. And there’s Laura Krolczyk, who, in a fit of frustration with COVID deniers, wrote on her Facebook page: “Trump supporters need to pledge to give up their ventilators for someone else.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"arts_10583072","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>The documentary allows each of these figures some space to explain themselves, but the point is not to vindicate them. The point is to take a deep dive into the cultural, social and psychological drivers behind internet take-downs. And it’s in those moments that \u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> does its most interesting work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The documentary sketches a fascinating “brief history of public shaming,” starting at the dawn of civilization, running through the introduction of the pillory, and then onto the invention of the printing press, tabloids and, finally, the internet. At one point, while talking about punishments doled out in town squares hundreds of years ago, cultural historian Dr. Tiffany Watt says: “This is a person who is suffering because they’ve done something wrong. And we have to punish them in order to tell everyone else not to do the same thing.” It’s clear in that moment the impulse to publicly shame is a thread that’s been present throughout history, and that the internet is merely the latest conduit for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> excels when discussing the psychology behind internet pile-ons. UCSF neuroscientist and psychologist Dr. Helen Weng explains why it’s harder for our brains to recognize people as full humans when we can’t see their faces and body language. Watt shares that one study of soccer fans found they felt a greater sense of joy from seeing rival teams fail than they did from seeing their own teams score. “What that showed,” Watt notes, “is that we enjoy seeing other people fail more than we enjoy winning, ourselves.” Being divided into “rival tribes,” Watt adds, “is a very, very dangerous place for a society to be in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cultural commentators throughout \u003cem>15 Minutes of Shame\u003c/em> offer up similarly thought-provoking analysis. Segments with Roxane Gay perfectly encapsulate the struggles of online discourse. On one hand, Gay talks about why fighting back online is so necessary. “People are so unseen and so unheard and they’ve been so unrepresented for so long, and you see something done about it. That is incredibly satisfying.” On the other hand, Gay acknowledges the deep flaws of the format. “People love to say … ‘I am not responsible for dehumanizing the person, the internet is,’” she notes. “The internet is there, but we are responsible for the ways in which we dehumanize each other.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>15 Minutes\u003c/em> also takes the time to find out how tech companies are complicit in that dehumanization. Technology ethicist Tristan Harris, a former Google employee, explains: “One NYU study found that for every word of moral outrage—negative human emotions—that you added to a tweet … it increased the retweet rate by 13%.” Harris goes on to compare Twitter’s algorithm to rubbernecking.

But for those unfamiliar with the archive, 9-Eyes’ back catalog can provide hours of vicarious, enthralling experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rafman frequently uses digital technology to illustrate how modern tools alienate humanity from itself. Fittingly, the rare moments of calm and beauty on 9-Eyes are almost always devoid of people. Rural locations act as a relief from the concrete chaos that dominates much of the collection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once human beings are removed from the picture, a sense of peace

But for those unfamiliar with the archive, 9-Eyes’ back catalog can provide hours of vicarious, enthralling experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rafman frequently uses digital technology to illustrate how modern tools alienate humanity from itself. Fittingly, the rare moments of calm and beauty on 9-Eyes are almost always devoid of people. Rural locations act as a relief from the concrete chaos that dominates much of the collection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once human beings are removed from the picture, a sense of peace

If it’s only about reach and popularity, only about audience, the seduction to be a platform for manipulation is so high because people want to make a business. We have to make a business in order to finance investigative journalists and correspondents, and big foreign networks. They cannot afford to do that for free. But manipulators, governments from Russia to China, other sinister sources, they can all use it, abuse it, and then you have an image problem for Facebook, but also a structure problem for journalism. So I would focus on making sure what makes the offering and it’s structuring on Facebook attractive for the hundreds of thousands of journalists, bloggers, digital native publishers, legacy publishers.

If it’s only about reach and popularity, only about audience, the seduction to be a platform for manipulation is so high because people want to make a business. We have to make a business in order to finance investigative journalists and correspondents, and big foreign networks. They cannot afford to do that for free. But manipulators, governments from Russia to China, other sinister sources, they can all use it, abuse it, and then you have an image problem for Facebook, but also a structure problem for journalism. So I would focus on making sure what makes the offering and it’s structuring on Facebook attractive for the hundreds of thousands of journalists, bloggers, digital native publishers, legacy publishers.

Even if it is, it also feels like SFMOMA is signaling something. Much has been made in the past five years about tech workers’ lack of engagement with the arts in the Bay Area, and specifically about tech companies’ apparent reluctance to support arts organizations financially. Every arts organization in the Bay Area has wondered, in boardrooms and annual reports, how to turn this around. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I won’t go so far as to say that \u003cem>Designed in California\u003c/em> is an advertisement for tech — there’s more to the exhibit than the designs of Silicon Valley — but the three-month-old Google Home Mini, especially, feels like a signifier, a willingness to engage.

More importantly, it’s a fantastic time capsule of an era when those creating code not only thought deeply about how to feed real-world problems into a computer (city planning, balancing a checkbook), but also bothered to explain to the public their reasons for doing so.

So at the end of the day, I don’t have this vision that someone is going to take Magenta-generated music and just kind of sit in a chair with two big speakers, and say ‘OK, I’m going to listen to this.’ I want the models to generate interesting music, and interesting art. so that you can try to do some new things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Think about the advent of photography.

Oops, just summoned Satan,” he says of the result.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huang crowd-sourced a bunch of raw sounds from his social media fans, and sent that along to Google along with some drum samples.

It’s not quite my cup of tea, either, but a lot of what makes music exciting to me is messy, idiosyncratic and specific to time and place.

That hurdle was crossed back in 1957 when professors Lejaren Hiller and Leonard Isaacson at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign programmed the “Illiac Suite for String Quartet,” on the ILLIAC I computer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/n0njBFLQSk8'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/n0njBFLQSk8'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another big moment in computer music history: 1996, when \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/dark_shark/status/712129070725730304\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brian Eno\u003c/a>’s album “Generative Music 1” was released on floppy disk, an old form of data storage familiar to Baby Boomers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s Eno back in the day talking about it on the now defunct BBC Radio 3 program, \u003cem>Mixing It\u003c/em>. “To explain this simply, in the computer there’s a little synthesizer, basically.

Deep neural networks. Recurrent neural networks. Reinforcement learning. I guess the best way to put it is: it’s easier to help a machine learn to solve a problem with data than to try to build the solution in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Translation: they’re crafting software that loosely imitates how \u003ci>your brain\u003c/i> works.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s amazing how much we take for granted enjoying just about any composition. \u003cb>\u003c/b>Musicians — and scientists — will tell you there’s a shockingly long list of things your brain is responding to: including rhythm, tonality, repetition, but also the way the melody \u003ci>develops,\u003c/i> so it’s not exactly the same thing you heard a few bars before. You can write code that mimics all that? Scientists are getting there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Software engineer Dan Abolafia says, “We starting to give these neural networks memory, to be able to remember what it did in a piece of music and have more intention about how it wants to build on that— which is surprisingly not something we were able to do not too long ago,” Abolafia says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13819189\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13819189\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/01/performance_rnn.gif\" alt=\"AI is getting better all the time.

To hear the music and decide if it sounds good or not. That’s something that people are starting to do with a technique called reinforcement learning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So where is this all going? The team at Google won’t tell you they’re trying to replace human composers, so much as they’re trying to help human composers with a new set of tools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eck explains, “We’re talking about building tools for creative people. So at the end of the day, I don’t have this vision that someone is going to take Magenta-generated music and just kind of sit in a chair with two big speakers, and say ‘OK, I’m going to listen to this.’ I want the models to generate interesting music, and interesting art. so that you can try to do some new things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Think about the advent of photography. It didn’t end visual art. Instead, it shifted what artists wanted to say and how. Google has made its code open to the public, to encourage people like music producer Andrew Huang to play with it (and also promote it).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/AaALLWQmCdI'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/AaALLWQmCdI'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among other things, Huang got jazzed about the capacity of Google’s software to smerge totally unrelated sounds to create new sounds. “What if we take this baby goat and combine that with that 3D printer? Oops, just summoned Satan,” he says of the result.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huang crowd-sourced a bunch of raw sounds from his social media fans, and sent that along to Google along with some drum samples.
