Diese PowerPoint-Live-Fotofilm-Performance beschäftigt sich mit der Kultur des Ratings, Rankings, Sternevergebens in der Stadt und im virtuellen Raum und

mit dem künstlerischen Umnutzen von Trainingsdatensätzen für KI. Eine Verbindung zum Thema FEELINGS besteht für mich vorwiegend in der Bewertungskultur, die ich mit einem satirischen Ansatz untersuche. Das Bewerten von Serviceleistungen, Raumeindrücken, Präsentationsformen ist eine höchst subjektive und emotionale Angelegenheit. Durch das Sammeln und Auswerten dieser Bewertungen in empirischen Fragebogenstrukturen entsteht ein schiefer Raum.


Stefanie Schroeder arbeitet mit Fotografie und Film. Sie versucht einen dokumentarischen Ansatz mit Strategien der Konzeptkunst zu verbinden und interessiert sich für Gebrauchsweisen der Fotografie, den Begriff der Arbeit, (mentale) Landschaftstransformationen, Ostdeutschland, Geisterbilder und Spam-Mails. Stefanie studierte Fotografie an der HGB Leipzig, nahm an der PMMC Masterclass/Lab des werkleitz e.V. und am MDM Pilotprogramm für künstlerischen Film teil. Sie ist Mitglied der Filmischen Initiative Leipzig und Mitbegründerin des Kunstraum .mpeg. Ihre Arbeiten wurden u.a. bei der transmediale, Ars Electronica, DOK Leipzig, Deichtorhallen und NRW Forum gezeigt.

Symposium 2025

Another State of Mind: What we Feel - What we See - What we Do.


Symposium of the International Photoszene Cologne in cooperation with the Academy of Media Arts Cologne on the exhibition “Feelings & Photography” & “To Dwell in the Same Time and Space” as part of the Photoszene Festival Cologne

What insights does photography provide about people's feelings? How can feelings be captured photographically - or created visually? Together with invited international artists, scientists, curators and teachers, we will reflect on the power of emotions in and from images. What are their potentials and dangers? On Friday, the focus will be on the creation of emotions in the digital and generative image world. In addition to current scientific lectures on the expression of emotions in photography, curators will speak on Saturday about their experiences in dealing with emotions and exhibition practice. KHM students will discuss emotions as a catalyst for artistic practice in times of multiple crises with speakers they have invited.

Speakers (as of 12.03.2025):

  • Dr. Thomas Spies (Media scientist and media artist)
  • Dr. Roland Meyer (Digital cultures and arts, Universität Zürich)
  • Stefanie Schröder (Artist, Leipzig)
