Storylab Workshop Series Pilot

Are you an arts professional, an HE lecturer, or a student involved in creative work? Have you ever wanted to explore how technology can be used for creative purposes?

Storylab is a workshop series designed to create a collaborative space where students, academics, researchers, and artists can explore the intersections of technology, creativity, methodologies, ethics, and environmental impact. This program encouraging participants to critically engage with emerging technologies and their implications.
