Leonardo/ISAST CripTech AI Lab Work-in-Progress Presentations

Join us for this showcase of the CripTech AI Lab, where our cohort will debut groundbreaking projects at the intersection of disability, art, and AI. This special event will feature works-in-progress, followed by a discussion with a panel of invited experts –a rare behind-the-scenes look at how these ideas are shaping new possibilities for art, access, and technology. This event is a precursor to a full virtual exhibition of the cohort's work, set to launch towards the end of this year—please stay tuned for more details!

About the CripTech AI Lab
The CripTech AI Lab is a virtual creative incubator that utilizes community-driven digital and new media art projects to engage, critique and reimagine the relationship between disability and artificial intelligence. This virtual lab spans a 4-month period that includes creative, technical and conceptual workshops, guest speakers (scholars, artists, creative technologists), individual project development, and one-on-one project review and advising sessions with the lead artist, culminating in a virtual exhibition, presentation and panel review. Participants will explore themes such as: Algorithms of self-discovery and the creation of personal tools for personal discovery; data ownership; discovery through AI without being mediated through commercial platforms; using open source and indie “tools that don’t try to eat you”.
