Drawing from Caravaggio’s Amorino Dormiente (Sleeping Cupid in English), the lecture explores how the diminutive form of "Amorino" conveys an intimate and emotional depth that is lost in its translation to "Cupid"—a generalized and commercialized figure. What is lost in translation then, operates as a mirror of the broader issue of how algorithmic systems flatten complex, affect-laden works into simplified, consumable data points.
