About the Project:

This three-part project interrogates the impact of AI on cultural heritages and the presentation of these AI-fuelled cultural futures through public-facing exhibition spaces across the UK and Germany. This project will interrogate the agency of AI situated within exhibit contexts, exploring its role in creativity as a device that is both generative and reflective. Further, this project methodologically pioneers the use of sensory ethnography and of visual content as an elicitation device.
