LDF II: Concluded with 45,000+ visitors

Four main themes emerged from the Metaverse Bodies collection of nine exhibitions based on climate change's impacts, gender and identity, culture and heritage conservation, and computational concepts such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and futuristic landscapes.

Women vs Machines

“Women Vs Machines aims to address the challenges – obvious and non-obvious – that gender and women face within the technology sector. This concept is designed to consider the future of digital spaces as seen from a gender perspective. This can mean the digital spaces themselves - inviting questions of access, interaction, and safety - as well as the infrastructure and systems needed to support them.
