SDG 11

SDG 11 aims to make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. As urban populations grow, the challenge of ensuring access to affordable housing, transportation, and basic services increases. This goal focuses on improving urban planning, reducing the environmental impact of cities, and ensuring that everyone has access to clean water, sanitation, and green spaces. By building cities that are sustainable and inclusive, SDG 11 works to create environments where people can live healthy, fulfilling lives, while minimizing the strain on natural resources and ensuring social and economic equity.

Autonomous Operation

Digital Salvage explores the use of digital archiving, artificial intelligence, data organization, publishing systems, and content preservation technologies to support heritage and community storytelling. The project serves as a practical learning environment where participants develop skills in digital literacy, research, content management, automation, archival practices, and emerging technologies while creating lasting public value.

Acknowledgements

This project was an activity piloted with strategic arts innovation funding from the Canada Council for the Arts Digital Greenhouse in 2022. We thank them for their support.

Experimental Futures

Digital Salvage explores the long-term relationship between technology, creativity, memory, and knowledge. The project examines what happens when information systems continue to evolve beyond their original creators, creating new opportunities for autonomous research, publishing, cultural preservation, and digital stewardship.
