UKAI will talk about two projects – a collaborative platform for cultural production resilient to ecological and political volatility and a city-scale tabletop roleplaying game that invites players to imagine rituals as ways of making a home in the world (with the guidance of an extremely unhelpful AI).
Studio Lead Luisa Ji, Prototyping Lead Kasra Goodarznezhad, and Research Lead Jerrold McGrath will be on hand during the talk.
UKAI Projects researches, prototypes, and produces culture for what’s coming. UKAI anticipates increasing political and ecological volatility and seeks to develop cultural infrastructure and artistic works that might support an inhabitation of these conditions.
Open Studio Fridays
From 10:00 - 17:00 you can stay at the Studio for Open Studio Fridays - join us to continue the conversation or work on your own projects. The Studio provides chairs, tables, wireless and a great space. You bring what you need to work with (laptop/mobile). Tell us what you’re up to, or allow us to facilitate conversations within the resident community. Studio staff and residents will be around to chat, answer questions, or tell you more about what we do. The open afternoons close at 17:00, sometimes with a trip to the Café & Bar.
Where to find us
The Lunchtime Talks take place in the Pervasive Media Studio, which is in the Watershed building. The Studio is just beyond the Café & Bar, turn right and then go down the corridor to your left (where the toilets are). The double doors here will be open, go all the way down until you reach the Studio. A member of staff will sign you in, and check your ticket, if you have booked.
