Digital Shifts - A webinar series on AI and digitalisation in performing arts and live music

How are artificial intelligence and digital technologies changing the way we create, organise and experience culture and live music? What opportunities do they offer cultural professionals, and what questions should we ask before making them part of our work? Four European cultural networks have joined forces to explore these questions through Digital Shifts, a new webinar series combining practical guidance, critical reflection and exchange across the sector.
