In the last episode of season 1, we talk to Jazmin Morris, Creative Computing Artist, Lead Digital Tutor at Central Saint Martins and Lecturer at the Creative Computing Institute, University of The Arts London.

Jazmin talks about the ways she’s fusing art and technology in her practice, as well as teaching, engaging with the local community and pushing for much-needed change in both the tech and art space.

We think you’ll find this episode hugely inspiring. We did!

We cover:

  • The access challenges faced by those who want to enter the arts/creativity sector.

    • The importance of outreach and driving diversity in the tech and art sectors.

      • How she’s driving change in her local community and beyond.

        • The ethics of generative art-making – and some factors to consider.

          • Why we need a bigger conversation on avatars – and how our bodies are being restricted by the limited parameters game creators are setting.

            • How playing the Sims could be a political act.

              • The responsibilities of technology makers and users – and why we need to work more closely.

                • The importance of making space for yourself and paving your way.

                • Jazmin finishes with some great advice on moving into the creative technology space and forging roles that work for you.
