FUTURE ROBOTS
DEEPMIND

_{︎ FILM}
In collaboration with DeepMind, we imagined how technologies could be deployed in order to tackle some of the most complex and pressing issues that we face today and in the future. We looked at emerging technologies, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, and proposed how these could lead to a better and more sustainable future.

The work was showcased in The Lethaby Gallery from 17 – 22 March 2022. ︎

_{︎ FILMS}
Each year we begin Material Futures with the Welcome Expedition, an opportunity to collectively leave the city behind and immerse ourselves in nature. However, after a year and a half of navigating a mostly digital course, this time doing so felt more important than ever.

For this year’s edition, we spent two nights on a farm in Sussex, surrounded by woodlands and apple trees, sharing stories and connecting to our surroundings. ︎
