The Arts Incubator

Winnipeg, Manitoba

The project is grounded in a dynamic process of collaborative engagement and capacity building, utilizing arts-based research methodologies to ensure the work is both relevant and empowering. A key focus is Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR), which positions young people as leaders in investigating their own economic realities and co-designing their futures. Through a series of co-design workshops, digital storytelling projects, and community forums, ECO-STAR North facilitates intergenerational knowledge transfer, connecting youth with Elders and established creators. This hands-on, community-led approach ensures the resulting toolkit is not an academic exercise, but a living, practical resource built by and for Northern innovators, strengthening a resilient and interconnected creative ecosystem.

Multi-agent systems rely on specialist agents — AI systems dedicated to specific types of work. These can include text generation, image synthesis, data analysis, or even music composition. Each agent is designed to perform a narrow but complex task exceptionally well.

AI Agents: Specialists at Work

The Arts Incubator - Winnipeg November 12, 2025
At its core, an AI “agent” is not sentient. It’s a system capable of perceiving its environment, planning a sequence of actions, and executing those actions to reach a goal. In a multi-agent system, these behaviors are distributed across the team.

Research: When AI Becomes a Team

Practical workflows are also changing the conversation. Artists are increasingly using AI to handle repetitive or large-scale tasks, freeing humans to focus on storytelling and interpretation.
