Day 2 – Algorithms, Interactivity, and Curatorial Strategy with Sarah Friend
Building on the Day 1 foundation (or a short catch-up for new arrivals), this day focuses on how more advanced code-based concepts intersect with curatorial thinking:

• The software stack(s): How code works in the cloud and connects to external services and hardware
• Algorithms in context: From generative art to machine learning to vibe coding—how software development is changing
• Interactivity and user experience: Understanding how artworks respond to audiences and environments
• Exhibition and archive planning: How to evaluate technical feasibility, anticipate maintenance, and collaborate effectively with artists and developers

Hands-on activities will invite you to explore these systems in a practical, approachable way.
