The Digital Deal Podcast #8: Computation, Improvisation, Narration, with Lawrence Lek and dmstfctn
The eighth round of conversations of the Digital Deal Podcast brings to the surface the relationship between representation, narration, and computational design, following the perspectives and experiences of the duo dmstfctn and the artist Lawrence Lek.
Is it possible to demystify misconceptions such as artificial intelligence through storytelling, acting, and improvisation?
In ‘Computation, Improvisation, Narration’, multimedia artist Lawrence Lek exchanges perspectives with the duo dmstfctn, formed by Francesco Tacchini and Oliver Smith, on how they both use acting and improvisation to build narratives around complex computational systems.
Co-funded by the European Union’s Creative Europe programme, the Digital Deal Podcast invites artists, cultural critics and theorists, and AI experts to discuss how new technologies reshape our democracies and help us make sense of these changes.
