PRESENTATION: AGENTE FILMICO — An LLM-Powered Interface for Curating Independent Archives

How might generative AI transform access to independent archives and small audiovisual collections? In this session, Pablo Núñez introduces Agente Fílmico, an open-source prototype of a conversational interface that curates and retrieves short films from the MAFI collection—a Chilean documentary archive spanning over a decade of private and public events that constitute a human landscape of Chilean society seen through the eyes of a collective of filmmakers, with the 2019 Estallido Social as a pivotal moment in Chile's recent history.

As the MAFI collective concludes its operations, this project explores whether LLM-based tools can offer new pathways into audiovisual archives while also serving as the foundation for a media artwork reflecting on collective memory in the age of AI.
The presentation unfolds in two parts. First, Núñez will introduce the MAFI collective, its motivations and trajectory. Second, a live demonstration of Agente 1.5 opens space for discussion and feedback, exploring how LLM-powered interfaces might serve archival and cultural institutions (technical feedback will be secondary). The research centres on innovating presentation and curation methods—how we encounter collections—rather than on archival science methodology, making it particularly relevant for smaller, independent archives.

𝗛𝗲𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗵𝘁 𝗼𝗽 𝗱𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗱
"In deze documentaire belichten de makers het recht op de stad voor de bewoners van de Baaibuurt in Amsterdam West. Het ‘recht op de stad’ is een concept dat verder gaat dan alleen toegang tot stedelijke ruimtes, het draait om de collectieve macht om de stad vorm te geven en te bepalen hoe die zich ontwikkelt. De term 'recht op de stad' werd oorspronkelijk geïntroduceerd door de Franse filosoof en socioloog Henri Lefebvre in 1968, en drukt het idee uit dat stedelijke ruimte niet enkel in dienst staat van kapitaal of privébezit, maar moet worden gevormd door en voor de mensen die er wonen, in het bijzonder gemarginaliseerde gemeenschappen. Het omvat rechten zoals toegang tot huisvesting, openbare diensten, vervoer, cultuur, onderwijs en groene ruimte, participatie in besluitvorming over stadsplanning en bestuur, inclusie in het culturele, sociale en politieke leven van de stad, en zeggenschap over stedelijke verandering (zoals het verzetten tegen verdringing, gentrificatie en de privatisering van publieke ruimte). Deze rechten golden (nagenoeg) allemaal niet voor de bewoners van de Baaibuurt-West."

"In this documentary, the makers highlight the right to the city for the residents of the Baaibuurt in Amsterdam West. The ‘right to the city’ is a concept that goes beyond mere access to urban spaces; it revolves around the collective power to shape the city and determine how it develops. The term ‘right to the city’ was originally introduced by the French philosopher and sociologist Henri Lefebvre in 1968, and expresses the idea that urban space should not only serve capital or private property, but must be shaped by and for the people who live there, especially marginalized communities. It encompasses rights such as access to housing, public services, transport, culture, education, and green space; participation in decision-making on urban planning and governance; inclusion in the cultural, social, and political life of the city; and influence over urban change (such as resisting displacement, gentrification, and the privatization of public space). These rights were (almost) entirely absent for the residents of Baaibuurt-West."
