商品描述

An edited volume that explores how color intersects with problematic histories of racial encoding in linguistic, visual, and algorithmic media.

What is at stake when categories like color, race, and ethnicity are transformed into a common language, lexicon, or industry standard? And more critically, how can we avoid the epistemic and ontological violence that seems inevitable in organizing color into a series of grammars, syntaxes, indexes, and protocols? Color Protocols offers a series of responses to these questions and others. It begins with the premise that color is central to the history of systemic racism, and in turn, that the encoding of race vis-à-vis color is an intrinsic aspect of chromatic technologies.

The book's eighteen curated essays, edited by Carolyn Kane and Lida Zeitlin-Wu, are written by scholars from across the arts, social sciences, and humanities. Each section contains both original essays and republished excerpts fundamental to understanding how the history of color technology and its racialized double-valences have played out across multiple fields and media platforms over the last century and a half.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《色彩協議》是一本探討色彩如何與語言、視覺和算法媒體中種族編碼的問題歷史交織的編輯書籍。

當色彩、種族和民族等類別被轉化為共同語言、詞彙或行業標準時,涉及到什麼樣的風險?更重要的是,我們如何避免在將色彩組織成一系列語法、句法、索引和協議時似乎不可避免的認識論和本體論暴力?《色彩協議》對這些問題及其他問題提供了一系列回應。它的前提是色彩在系統性種族主義的歷史中是核心,而種族相對於色彩的編碼則是色彩技術的內在特徵。

本書由Carolyn Kane和Lida Zeitlin-Wu編輯,包含十八篇精心策劃的論文,作者來自藝術、社會科學和人文學科的學者。每個部分都包含原創論文和重新出版的摘錄,這些內容對於理解色彩技術的歷史及其種族化的雙重價值在過去一個半世紀中如何在多個領域和媒體平台上展開至關重要。
