[HIS.10] Hyperheritage international symposium

Since 2013, the international network HyperHeritage International Symposium (HIS) has been developing interdisciplinary thinking dedicated to the relationship between heritage, digital and societies. Previous editions of the symposium, organized in Europe, North Africa and the Middle East, have brought together researchers and practitioners from the human and social sciences, computer science, engineering, design and the arts, around the issues of digital heritage, mediation, creation and territorial memory.

The 10ᵉ edition of the symposium, entitled "Vulnerable heritages and artificial intelligence", takes place against a backdrop of multiple crises - environmental, social, economic, political and technological - that are profoundly reconfiguring the regimes of heritage production, conservation and transmission. It proposes to question the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in these processes, focusing on contemporary forms of vulnerability, their polysemy and their ethical, cultural and epistemological implications.

In fact, AI appears both as a factor of fragility (technological dependence, algorithmic biases, opacity of systems, instability of data) and as a powerful tool for safeguarding, reconstituting, simulating and creating heritage. This symposium thus aims to analyze these tensions, to cross disciplinary approaches and to confront theoretical analyses, case studies, technical experiments and artistic approaches.
