From platonic to romantic to robotic, LOVE.exe celebrates and interrogates all expressions of love, particularly as transformed by technology. We exchange love via wires and waves, creating new ways to connect and, inevitably, new vulnerabilities. The internet has unlocked authentic communities built on shared experiences and interpersonal discovery unlimited by location and demographics. However, when everything and everyone is available online and friends stay in touch via Instagram likes, the line between truly knowing someone versus just the concept of them blurs. 

Story System is a two-day masterclass and workshop aimed at artists interested in developing systems for creative writing using AI, run by London-based artist duo dmstfctn. Taking their upcoming work focused on Commedia dell'Arte and AI as a case study, as well as materials from local museum archives, dmstfctn will demonstrate different approaches to create "story systems" that use AI and Large Language Models to write scripts, dialogues, scenarios, etc. Across the two days, participants will work individually or together to come up with their own "story system", and with support from dmstfctn they will produce a piece of writing.
