About

What happens when AI becomes your creative collaborator?

Come explore the intersection of human and machine creativity at this hands-on event bringing together artists, musicians, and technologists. How might we apply the principles of co-design to collaborative creation with AI. Experience live demos and experiments with MIT researchers exploring these questions through a musical lens. You'll use AI tools to generate movement, sound, and ideas, then shape them into a communal performance.

No coding, or technical background required. Just curiosity.

Whether you're a dancer, a musician, a designer, or simply someone who's wondered what it feels like to co-create with an AI, this is your invitation to find out. Leave with a sense of community, and a new perspective of what's possible when humans and AI co-design.

ABOUT DESIGN REDEFINED

Design Redefined is a series of events seeking to challenge our perception of design as a process of enhancing aesthetics, usability, or marketability and moving towards a deeper understanding of it as a powerful tool for change.

Appropriate for high school, undergraduate, and graduate students, as well as design professionals, each session will feature a panel discussion featuring thought leaders, followed by a hands-on exploration of key design principles, light refreshments, and networking. Co-hosted by MIT MAD and Innovators for Purpose.

ACCESSIBILITY

Our events are enriched by your presence and we are committed to making them accessible to everyone.
