Digital Skills Program

A series of workshops, seminars and intensives that focus on using digital and emerging technologies to develop creative practice.

About the program

We are partnering with leading educational institutions, creative technologists and industry professionals to bring you a series of learning opportunities designed to develop your skills and to adapt and thrive in an increasingly digital world. The program aims to enable creative practitioners to develop relevant digital skills and strategies to explore new creative work and build sustainable careers.

The Digital Skills panels bring together leading artists, researchers, producers and curators in the field to talk about how they’re making, programming and working with new technologies and the digital space.

Previous panels

Workshops are ideation-based sessions with industry professionals and creative technologists designed to stimulate a digital mindset in artists and organisations. Participants are encouraged to bring problems, questions and projects to the session to have them worked through. Part tech support, part brain-storming, these sessions aim to energise and inspire participants.

Keep an eye out for our upcoming workshops.

Intensives take small groups of digital artists and practitioners to key industry events in the wider creative sector. These short intensives are designed for artists to cross pollinate with the wider digital creative industries and gain exposure to new technologies outside the art sector.
