Central Saint Martins, in partnership with Three, is launching an exciting series of workshops and events focused on advanced digital skills and the future of technology. The Digital Innovation Season is open to all current Central Saint Martins students and the graduating class of 2020. It runs from November 2020 – January 2021.
The season presents events, mini-courses and workshops on the following areas:
- Hands-on workshops with leading practitioners, connecting you to diverse voices from across gaming, VFX, digital art production and wearable technology.
- Opportunities to learn across programmes, mixing disciplinary groups where the core focus is on the knowledge and application of different technologies, allowing for the cross-pollination of ideas.
- Hybrid Futures, a series of critical talks with leading-edge practitioners and thinkers around the interaction between humans and machines. Curated and led by Dr Betti Marenko, Reader in Design and Techno-Digital Futures at Central Saint Martins. Hybrid Futures events are open both to Central Saint Martins Students and the general public.
Central Saint Martins is working with a global network of practitioners and educators on the programme, including:
- Manu Luksch, a resident artist at Somerset House, who will present a screening and critical discussion of her film Dreams Rewired as the first event in the Hybrid Futures series. Sign up here.
- Galen Davies, a producer at EPIC games who will focus on how to create 3D effects in the Unity gaming engine. Sign up here.
- Valentina Di Fillipo, a designer, illustrator and creative director who will be leading a session on Visual Storytelling with Data. Sign up here.

Most of the programme will be delivered through online sessions. As this is a pilot project, spaces on some of the events may be highly limited.
Some workshops are in multiple parts. Students who sign up to a workshop should be able to commit to the full schedule outlined in that event listing.
