Creative Intelligence Summit
An industry day for the culture makers, artists, writers, designers and engineers shaping our world.
We kick off Creative Intelligence with a day of exploration into the world-changing innovations of creative entrepreneurs.
We hear from artists and thinkers working in diverse fields including beauty, quantum computing and venture capital for artist products, expanding out to explore planetary-scale systems and art where nature is the main protagonist.
Speakers include Sougwen Chung, Alex Estorick, Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, Anab Jain, Xin Liu and K Allado-McDowell.
Join this shared space for the people shaping our tomorrow, and stick around for the evening with a takeover of music demos and installations from Peckham Digital and deep listening with Holly Herndon.
Creative Intelligence is commissioned and produced by the Southbank Centre. Curated with PACT – Planetary Art Culture Technology.
