Explore a conversation with choreographer and performer Gloria Höckner about her artistic research project "Sentimental Bits," which investigates emotion tracking through artificial emotion intelligence (Emotion AI). Delve into the use of Emotion AI by major companies for personalized advertising and its implementation in border control and public transportation surveillance. Examine the historical roots of emotion classification in pseudosciences like physiognomy and phrenology, and critically analyze modern emotion-tracking technologies from a technofeminist perspective. Consider the implications of digitizing emotions on social interactions and self-expression, while questioning how to maintain control over personal data and evade new surveillance technologies in the context of an emerging "emotion economy."
