Hybrid: International Evening - EVA London 2026

Stephen Wolfram

EVA London 2026’s International Evening opens with a timely and thought-provoking keynote contribution from Stephen Wolfram, Mining Art from the Computational Universe.

This will be followed by reports from other EVA conferences and a presentation on Digital Arts in China led by Professor Yi Ji and Sean Clarke.

The evening will conclude with a networking opportunity. Stephen Wolfram is the creator of Mathematica, Wolfram|Alpha and the Wolfram Language; the author of A New Kind of Science; the originator of the Wolfram Physics Project; and the founder and CEO of Wolfram Research.

Over the course of more than four decades, he has been a pioneer in the development and application of computational thinking—and has been responsible for many discoveries, inventions and innovations in science, technology and business.

Based on both his practical and theoretical thinking, Wolfram has emerged as an authority on the implications of computation and artificial intelligence for society and the future, and the importance of computational language as a bridge between the capabilities of computation and human objectives.

He writes regularly about his activities and thinking on his Stephen Wolfram Writings site.

Registration is free but must be booked in advance via this form.
