RMIT IMAGING FUTURES LAB
The Imaging Futures Lab is a network of artists, academics and researchers interested in the ontological implications of emerging paradigms for the expanded image. Our work explores the creative and discursive potential and implications of emerging computational image-making technologies and their application to expanded photography and imaging practices.
The IF_LAB is led by Dr Alison Bennett and Dr Rebecca Najdowski.
