Past Workshops

Workshop on VJing and Immersive XR Technologies with Lisbon-based collective VJs Anonymous. This session explores the latest technologies in VJing and demonstrates how sound, light, and movement can be transformed into immersive and captivating visual experiences.

Kaitlyn Davies explains how Web3 is transforming online collaboration, allowing artists to manage their own resources without intermediaries—such as social networks (Facebook, Instagram), digital marketplaces (Etsy, Patreon), or tech companies that control artistic content distribution (Spotify, YouTube). The session also introduces DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations), which enable collective funding, shared decision-making, and new ways to monetize creative work.

In this workshop, researcher Lina Harder  guided us through the world of AI-powered chatbots that simulate conversations with historical figures like Marie Curie or Vincent van Gogh. Together, we examined how in the context of museums, school curricula or private research these tools engage audiences, create imaginaries, and the potential risks they pose.
