Jones to speak to over 100 staff and students about ‘Artificial Intelligence and Digital Media’.

On 4th February the Mexican newspaper El Economista interviewed Carl on the subject of Creativity and A.I. and asked him How artificial Intelligence (A.I.) will affect the creative industries? Jones responded. “AI will replace jobs in creative areas. However, the difference is that each human being has a personality and a unique form of logic that a robot will never be able to emulate.” The paper then asked How to survive with a job in the creative industries?, Jones responded “…by using technology. One of the useful tools are those of ‘social listening’ where A.I. is used to support human process. More persuasive ideas can arise that are then embodied in branded communication such as Public Relations or Advertising campaigns........ more here

His research examines the tools and techniques used to create the cultural codes within multimodal 2D advertising messages in Mexico. Jones told the Hong Kong audience that according to semioticians Kress & Van Leeuwen, Multimodality refers to the interplay between different representational modes, for instance, between images and written/spoken word. Advertising is a perfect example of MULTIMODAL as much advertising appropriates different ‘representational modes’ such as in outdoor or print advertising using images and written words.
As part of his research process Carl explored the differences in 2D message creation between the lower; middle, and high socio-economic classes, and concluded that Mexican advertising is a racist spectacle, that needs to be decolonized. The following week Jones led a panel for the largest organization devoted to creativity in Mexico called Circulo Creativo de Mexico (Mexican Creative Club) where he discussed his research applying Mignolo’s theory of ‘de-linking’ to advertising to remove racist thinking from the advertising creation process. In the question period that followed he stated that his goal is to bring together academic research and the creative industries so they can learn from each other just like the industries of Law, Architecture and Medicine do, by sharing information, and supporting academic research and education.
