Shintaro Miyazaki is a Senior Researcher at the Critical Media Lab Basel, Academy of Art and Design FHNW in Switzerland. He studied media studies, philosophy, and musicology in Basel and Berlin, where in 2012 he received a PhD in media studies (about the history of digital technologies focusing on algorithms and their rhythms by coining the term algorhythmics).
Since about seven years ago, he embarked on an extended field trip in humanities-driven, experimental media design research. Miyazaki is interested in how we can generate moments of criticality which could emancipate us from our self-imposed ignorance of the algorithmic infrastructures we are captured by.
