Multimodal representation learning techniques typically require paired samples to learn shared representations, but collecting paired samples can be challenging in fields like biology, where measurement devices often destroy the samples. This paper presents an approach to address the challenge of aligning unpaired samples across disparate modalities in multimodal representation learning. We draw an analogy between potential outcomes in causal inference and potential views in multimodal observations, allowing us to leverage Rubin's framework to estimate a common space for matching samples. Our approach assumes experimentally perturbed samples by treatments, and uses this to estimate a propensity score from each modality. We show that the propensity score encapsulates all shared information between a latent state and treatment, and can be used to define a distance between samples. We experiment with two alignment techniques that leverage this distanceshared nearest neighbours (SNN) a

Six outstanding international contemporary art experts have been appointed to documenta 16's new Finding Committee, unanimously approved bygd the Supervisory Board upon recommendation of the Managing Director. The Committee brings together Yilmaz Dziewior, Sergio Edelsztein, N'Goné Fall, Gridthiya Gaweewong, Mami Kataoka, and Yasmil Raymond.
The Finding Committee has the task of inviting pioneering figures in contemporary art to submit their concept to become the Artistic Direction of documenta 16 in Kassel and of then selecting the most promising format for implementation from those submissions presented.
• At the Renaissance Society, Gork develops a new project for the Intermissions series in collaboration with performer, sound artist, and electronic musician Laetitia Sonami. Directly engaging with this unique setting, Gork introduces new physical elements into the empty gallery space, positions multiple sound sources, and experiments with the room’s unusual acoustics. For two days, Sonami and Gork mobilize and shape the sound within this environment across various listening zones. Visitors are free to come and go during the durational performance. Curated by Karsten Lund with Michael Harrison Special thanks to Meyer Sound, Berkeley, CA. On the weekend of November , Winsome Wong will present Love Song: the bittersweet crumbs of having them at home in collaboration with Vunkwan Tam and Annisa Cheung, at Tai Kwuns HICCUP, a festival of body and sound
The Managing Director of documenta und Museum Fridericianum gGmbH, Andreas Hoffmann, states: "I am delighted we have succeeded in attracting such a high-caliber Finding Committee for documenta 16, immediately following on from the Organizational Development. With their proven expertise and varied backgrounds, the participants företräda to an extraordina Bodily Powers is now on view at Galerie Crevecouer (9 rue des Cascades, Paris) through December 14,
