Reading about fire isn’t the same as being burned.

The world is changing. How do you make sense of these changes? How will you make a home in the world that's coming?

Through immersive and interactive installations, publishing, programming, and workshops, UKAI Projects imagines and produces "culture for what's coming".

We provide you and your audiences with direct encounters with climate change, artificial intelligence, authoritarianism, and more so that you can make sense of what's happening and commit to action going forward.

Programs

How you work, what you do, and why you do it will necessarily change as our world changes. UKAI's programs build commitment and capacity to move forward because the commitments come from the participants themselves.

Our programs prepare you and your organization with the resilience to work with and alongside ongoing volatility.

  • Build resilience to massive issues such as climate change, rising authoritarianism, and an explosion in artificial intelligence. 
  • Build facility with new tools and technologies that can help you make a home in a changed world.

Our collective well-being hinges on our ability to live in right relation with the world we’re creating.

Are you ready?

  • Rachana Joshi, artist, Nova Dance (CA)

    "Working with UKAI has been invaluable for the Reconnections - body/heart/mind project. This initiative began during the pandemic when Sukruti and I, representing Nova Dance, participated in UKAI project's Migrations Residency. During this time, we were connected to collaborators, engaged with the community, and held crucial discussions about digital spaces, algorithms, and how culturally sensitive organizations could pivot online. The prototype we developed for an online sanctuary for sharing and collaborating through mindful movement practices in Migrations laid the groundwork for the Reconnections project.The UKAI team continued to nurture this idea as we progressed towards creating a tangible website/app. From the application process to the final presentation, UKAI provided dedicated support."

  • Martynas Petreikis, SÍM Residency Director (IS)

    "The Shipwreck project successfully activated our space, transforming it into a vibrant hub of artistic and intellectual activity. The interactive nature of the installations and the open invitation for public participation drew in diverse audiences, including local residents, art enthusiasts, and international visitors. The project’s emphasis on dialogue and engagement allowed for a deeper connection with the artworks, fostering a sense of community and shared purpose."

  • Keith Taylor, Executive Director, DUCA Impact Lab (CA)

    "UKAI Projects offers a unique perspective on the links between the systems driving our current cultural challenges and our collective well-being. Our work together provided us with valuable insights, much of which still informs our work today."

We believe people need to inhabit changes if they’re going to do anything about them—to be responsible we need to make sense of things for ourselves.

UKAI creates interactive and immersive encounters with large-scale changes.

Move through discomfort:

Our encounters involve discomfort but participants are supported to hold that discomfort and make sense of it. When we avoid uncomfortable experiences, we avoid having to respond.

Moving beyond ideologies:

When we rely on ideologies to make our decisions, we are skipping a step. We’ve decided what something means before we have the experience. UKAI's encounters provide the experience AND the space to make meaning.

Move into new approaches:

The thinking that got us here isn't the thinking that will get us out of it. Direct encounters provide the raw material to prototype new approaches.

If you are a purpose-driven organization and sometimes struggle to get people to move past abstract interest in an issue to concrete action, maybe we can help.

Work with UKAI Projects

Cultures evolve to meet the needs of the people in them and the demands of the world around them. What kind of culture(s) will we need in order to live in a world altered by smart machines, rising temperatures, and volatile governments?


We will work with you to:

  • Create experiences that allow people to step into issues that matter rather than thinking about them abstractly or through a polarized lens
  • Prototype new ways of responding through culture
  • Publishing and other media production to amplify approaches that increase the solutions we can draw on going forward

We are not passive recipients of culture. We make it.

Direct encounters, rather than abstract and ideological ones, are necessary if we hope to make a home in this changing world.

  • Maitri Platform

    As a founding member of the Maitri Platform, I had a chance to work with UKAI in Maitri's earliest days. The COVID-19 pandemic had just been declared and we were all disoriented and unsure about what was to come. Like the rest of us, the team at UKAI had no idea either. But, UKAI did have great ideas about how we might organize ourselves as a global community. Their approach helped us sense check, and find a tentative path forward. Maitri wouldn't be what it is today without UKAI. In the years since, UKAI has stimulated our community to think about head-splitting problems related to algorithmic culture and also raised funds for our humanitarian efforts. We are proud to count UKAI among the organizations that have made the Maitri Platform fertile ground for exploration, discovery, and development of new approaches to humanity's challenges.

  • SÍM Residency, Iceland

    The "Shipwreck" project successfully activated our space located on the outskirts of the city Reykjavík and in an area without a recent history of high-profile exhibitions, transforming it into a vibrant hub of artistic and intellectual activity. The interactive nature of the installations and the open invitation for public participation drew in diverse audiences, including local residents, art enthusiasts, and international visitors. The project’s emphasis on dialogue and engagement allowed for a deeper connection with the artworks, fostering a sense of community and shared purpose.

    "Shipwreck" attracted significant attention from leaders in the local arts scene, who were keen to witness this model of immersive and collaborative art-making in action. This was complemented by coverage on Iceland’s national radio and in print. The project’s unique approach and the quality of the artworks exhibited garnered visits from prominent curators, gallery owners, and cultural policymakers. Their engagement not only validated the project's impact but also highlighted its potential as a model for future art initiatives.

Delivery: in-person

Event Type: 1-day Workshop

A 1-day crash course for creators worried about being left behind.

"Finding Your Way with AI" is a 1-day workshop being delivered across Canada. It is designed to support creators who feel anxious about the rapid integration of AI into artistic practices. "Finding Your Way with AI" aims to demystify AI and help participants discover how they can harness this technology to enhance their creative processes. Drawing from UKAI’s experimental approaches over the past five years, this information session will answer questions from potential participants about the types of hands-on activities, collaborative discussions, and exploratory exercises to expect and that might illuminate the possibilities AI offers for the arts. Workshops are structured to encourage a deep and thoughtful exploration of AI's role in artistic practice, emphasizing practical, real-world applications.

At UKAI Projects, our broader mission is to question dominant narratives and explore alternative ways of understanding and interacting with the world. By offering this series of workshops, we aim to equip artists with the tools to navigate the evolving landscape of AI in a way that aligns with their idiosyncratic practices and resists the homogenizing tendencies of centralized technological control .

Fri Dec 13, 2024 @ 01:00 pm

Delivery: in-person

Event Type: 1-day Workshop

ALL REGISTRANTS WILL RECEIVE A COPY OF THE "TELLING THE STORY OF THE END OF THE WORLD" CHAPBOOK

Join us for an immersive and thought-provoking workshop designed to explore the themes of storytelling, disorder, and synthetic language through creative and practical lenses. Whether you are a writer, artist, researcher, or someone curious about how we might navigate the complex realities of today and the uncertain future, this workshop offers a space to engage with these ideas and apply them to your own practice.

Date: Friday, December 13 2024

Time: 3:00 PM - 9:00 PM


Schedule:

  • 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM: Telling the Story of the End of the World Delve into the challenge of representing large-scale volatility—climate change, AI, authoritarianism—and how to craft stories that allow us to make meaning of these seemingly abstract changes.
  • 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM: Reading from "In Praise of Disorder" Explore the themes of disruption, disorder, and creativity through selected readings that open conversations about the ways disorder can offer new approaches to art and life.
  • 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Introduction to the Poetics of Synthetic Language Discover how synthetic language, AI, and poetic forms intersect. This session introduces the principles of creating and interpreting poetic works in the age of machines and explores how language evolves in digital and human contexts.
  • 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Workshop: Applying These Themes to Your Own Practice Participate in a hands-on session where you will explore how these ideas can be applied to your own creative or research practice. Guided exercises will help you synthesize insights and craft new approaches.
  • 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Social Time and Connection An opportunity to meet and connect with fellow participants, share insights, and build relationships with like-minded individuals interested in storytelling, art, and the evolving landscape of creativity.

Join us for an evening of deep exploration, creativity, and community.

We will also be introducing our Poetics of Synthetic Language publication.

Poetics of Synthetic Language was a multi-month research residency for cultural producers exploring the poetics of large language models and synthetic language generally. What happens to the poetics of a work when language is being drawn not from engagement with the world but rather from a large language model trained on a vast corpus of human language? What are the risks and opportunities of relying on synthetic language that is not participating in the continuous process of becoming and evolving that defines language running wild in the world?

Intelligent Terrain Spring 2025 Residency

Mon Feb 03, 2025 @ 12:00 pm

Delivery: online and in-person

Event Type: Residency + Retreat

Intelligent Terrain is a yearly land-centered residency drawing on terrain near Wakefield, Quebec. During this residency, interdisciplinary artists individually and (where safe) collectively explored cognitive technology’s relationship to land and imagined approaches that bring us into a closer relationship with our environment while working toward the preservation of our world for future generations.

Join this information session to learn more about the program, the application process, and connect with others interested in the themes expressed.

Just as we inhabit our physical bodies, we inhabit landscapes and live within and from them. We have seen the impact of failing to acknowledge our entanglement with natural systems. From stone tablets to silicon chips, intelligent machines are not further away from the land than an engraved piece of stone.

To varying degrees, we are organized by our landscapes, and how might land inform AI’s development and our responses to it? How might we change the focus of surveillance from monitoring and control to understanding the relationships among people and environments? How might traditional knowledge and stewardship underpin ethical AI?

According to legal scholar and member of the Chippewa of the Nawash First Nation John Borrows, in oral and visual cultures, law flows from the people and from the natural world and is reflected in the artistic and physical world. To imagine ourselves as disentangled from our landscapes creates the conditions for the evacuation of these spaces. How might an ethic of stewardship, centered in natural environments, suggest developmental pathways for AI and responses to its excesses?

UKAI Projects leads a yearly, land-centered residency drawing on terrain near Wakefield, Quebec. During this residency, interdisciplinary artists individually and (where safe) collectively explored cognitive technology’s relationship to land and imagined approaches that bring us into a closer relationship with our environment while working toward the preservation of our world for future generations.

Most discourse tacitly or explicitly positions human beings, their relationships, and the environments they inhabit as ‘objects’ of ethical systems, algorithmic decision making, corporate action, and government regulation. Our cultural life extends from how we experience ourselves and how we experience others. AI amplifies and distorts what we actually and potentially experience.

Reimagination is possible.

Our experiences establish the ideas we can draw upon. AI has no body, no physical environment organizing its development, and no culture to weave and reweave into social life. There is no ‘dark matter’ for the machine to draw upon and our algorithmic culture is increasingly asking us to ignore our own semantic contexts. By (re)inhabiting the body, the land, and our cultures we might imagine a new ethics for algorithms and support others to appreciate the path we find ourselves on.

Wed Aug 14, 2024 @ 05:00 pm

Delivery: Zoom

Event Type: Residency + Retreat

Join an information session about UKAI's Aberrant AI Residency!

Aberrant AI invites artists and others to explore the potential creative applications of artificial intelligence to express conditions of horror and the macabre.
