The Arts Incubator

Winnipeg, Manitoba

As a comprehensive skills development and participatory research initiative, the program encompassed a wide spectrum of creative and technical learning opportunities. Over six months, artists, creatives, and researchers engaged deeply with generative AI concepts, experimented with building custom GPTs, and applied agentic design principles to collaborative storytelling and narrative projects. The program further emphasized transversal creation, data management, automation, and rapid application development, while fostering advanced exploration of storytelling, narrative structures, and systems design. By bridging these interdisciplinary domains, the initiative equipped participants with the technical fluency, creative agility, and AI literacy needed to navigate emerging AI-driven workflows and co-create innovative, human-centred solutions across media, research, and cultural production.

We set aside our usual creative tools earlier this month to focus on preparing our food security program. The sight of hundreds of strawberry flowers opening up is a truly exciting reward for all the hard work.
