Unpack the creative power of the tech industries. Help us create a new space where the art world meets the tech world.
Join the University of the Arts, UAL Digital Maker Collective and guests from the creative and tech industries. Help us transform the Tate Exchange into an open and accessible โTest Bed' for creative tech. A place for all to explore, question and learn about the world of tech business and future technologies.
The UK is third in the world for producing successful tech companies and unicorns which are privately-owned tech companies valued at over $1bn. UAL are at the centre of this tech revolution, yet the gap between tech business/giants and everyday society is continually widening.ย How do we reconcile this gap and bring the tech world into arts, but equally important, how do we bring arts creatives into the world of tech?
What responsibility do the arts have in restoring trust and empowering society to stake its claim in this new land of opportunity and in defining the language of emerging technologies?
