VPRO Medialab: how can AI sustain us?

A two-day hackathon on how AI can help us to foster a more sustainable approach to making media, creating and sharing stories, sparking meaningful lasting conversations. SustAInability by design for public service media.

As in other areas of industry and society public broadcasters are facing the challenge to become more sustainable and reduce their carbon-footprint. What if we meet that challenge head-on and start the transformation right at the core of the media ecosystem? What would radically sustainable public media look like? What kind of formats could be made within the constraints of only solar energy? What micro-stories would we tell, and how would we deliver them? What affordances does Artificial Intelligence, Gen- or otherwise, bring to the table? How can the synthetic alchemy of Media and AI give lasting or renewable life to our stories?

Feeling challenged? Are you an aspiring critical thinker, hands-on transformer, next-gen marketeer, daring coder-designer or future storyteller? Join us for two intensedays of inspiration, co-creation and prototyping with media professionals. Wanna join as a team, no problem, sign up together!
