Artificial Intelligence is revolutionizing how we work, learn, and create—and thanks to programs like the OpenAI Researcher Access Program, we’re discovering new, fun ways to explore AI’s potential.
One of the most exciting elements this year will be the creation of simple virtual galleries where artists can showcase their artwork. Using platforms that support VR and interactive storytelling, artists are learning how to design immersive spaces that highlight their creations.
I’m super excited to share my experience learning how to code and create my very own adventure game called “Going to Churchill – An Epic Inuit Adventure!” This project was part of our Art Borups Corners program, and honestly, it was a blast!
As part of the Fall and Winter 2024-2025 Art Borups Corners and its Winnipeg Arts Incubator program, artists and community members are learning to create a simple yet engaging text adventure game titled “Travel to Winnipeg.”
This year a small, grassroots arts hub in Northwestern Ontario and Manitoba is revolutionizing Northern arts and community research fusing art and AI. From skills to streamlining administrative tasks, empowering youth with gamified learning, and creating digital archives, this innovative program is building the next generation of leaders while addressing complex local issues with cutting-edge technology.
Winnipeg, MB – This fall and winter, the Winnipeg Arts Incubator and Art Borups Corners are bringing virtual reality (VR) design to artists and community members who have little to no experience with coding. Through an innovative program led by interdisciplinary artist Jamie Bell, participants are learning how to create immersive VR experiences using simple game design principles and AI-assisted tools.
Revolutionizing the arts in rural and northern communities, a Winnipeg-based program is merging UX/UI design, virtual reality, and biophilic principles to craft cutting-edge, sustainable solutions. By blending technology, storytelling, and nature-inspired design, the initiative empowers under-resourced arts organizations to thrive, adapt, and connect with global audiences—while staying deeply rooted in their local identities.
Rooted in creativity and community, a Winnipeg-based program led by interdisciplinary artists Jamie Bell and Tony Eetak is blending participatory storytelling, innovative technologies, and mentorship, to inspire artists and organizations to amplify their voices, plan impactful events, and curate transformative exhibits—all while staying true to their cultural identities.
In remote and rural communities, artists are leveraging digital return systems to overcome isolation, preserve cultural heritage, and share their stories with the world. Today, artists and innovators are bridging the gaps between tradition and technology, creating opportunities for connection and creativity in the digital age.
We’re thrilled to unveil one of our flagship projects for this year—an innovative short course that brings together art, data, and technology in bold and transformative ways. “Arts, Data, and Immersive Storytelling” is a hands-on program that pushes the boundaries of how we interpret and communicate complex data through artistic expression and cutting-edge tools like OpenAI’s APIs and Three.js.
