Reflections: A Digital Memory Living Lab in Chinatown

As new technology continues to shape our lives, how can we use these AI tools to envision a society that reflects our shared values?

“Reflections: A Digital Memory Workshop in Chinatown (Montreal)” is a 6-hour workshop facilitated by Chloé Lee, creator of Temporal World (SXSW 2023). In the workshop, she shares her creative process, guiding groups and individuals to reflect on their communities through writing exercises, interviews and experimentation with AI image generation. The workshop is for anyone: people of all skill levels, backgrounds and ages, and all needed technology will be provided. We will reflect on what community means to each of us. By the end of the day, our creations will be installed and shown in a collective 3D interactive virtual gallery built with Unity. The gallery showcases the work and ideas created by the mix of people who come for this one-day event.

This workshop is co-presented by Present Futures and the Jia Foundation.
