A one-day, intensive AI filmmaking hackathon will be held on April 15 at the Johnny Carson Center for Emerging Media Arts. Creatives will offer up speculative visions of the future and emergent system designs to offer us clues and strategies of ways that we can shape an interspecies future.
The event is co-hosted by the Nebraska Technology and Governance Center, Cinema 16 and the Johnny Carson Center for Emerging Media Arts.
No experience is necessary, and everyone is welcome — undergraduates, graduates, staff and faculty from across the university campus, as well as the greater Lincoln community. The event is free and open to the public. Beverages and snacks, breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided throughout the day.
The day begins at 9 a.m. Filmmaking will take place between 9:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. The day will conclude with a dinner, guest speakers and a film screening with awards.
A pre-event workshop will be held from 12:30-2:30 p.m. April 14 at the Johnny Carson Center for Emerging Media Arts to share tools and techniques.
