AI LAB Radio #3: Karen Palmer

From the perspective of 13 major cultural operators in Europe (Ars Electronica, Center for Promotion of Science, Zaragoza City of Knowledge Foundation, Laboral, Kapelica Gallery, Science Gallery Dublin, Onassis Cultural Center, The Culture Yard / clickfestival, GLUON, Hexagone Scène Nationale Arts Sciences, SOU Festival, le lieu unique, Waag), the AI LAB centers visions, expectations and fears that we associate with the conception of a future, all-encompassing artificial intelligence. Through an extensive activity programme in the form of exhibitions, labs, workshops, conferences, talks, performances, concerts and residencies the project fosters interdisciplinary work, transnational mobility and intercultural exchange. In our Radio show we will give insight into projects by different female artists whose work focuses on the topic of AI, bias and/or gender.

In the current AI LAB Radio show we are broadcasting an interview with Karen Palmer, the storyteller from the future, international artist and TED Speaker. Her work is at the intersection of AI, immersive storytelling, neuroscience, behavioural psychology, implicit bias and the parkour philosophy of moving through fear. Palmer was awarded with this year’s STARTS Prize Honorary Mention for Perception iO (Input Output). iO is the future of Law Enforcement. This project is addressing police violence and racism.

The AI Lab is co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union.
