MDW Workshop | Diversifying Design Cultures in the Era of Generative AI (GenAI)

Diversifying Design Cultures in the Era of Generative AI (GenAI) is a public workshop that examines how reflecting on design identity can enhance novel design processes. It integrates diverse cultural narratives and perspectives into AI-driven design while addressing and overcoming GenAI misrepresentations. This workshop empowers designers to critically engage with GenAI tools to enrich culture and society by expressing, questioning, testing, and creating meaningful design artefacts.

We anticipate participants such as design practitioners, educators, researchers, and students in design and architecture who are interested in using GenAI in design or who are facing challenges with cultural accuracy when using GenAI.

The outcomes generated through the workshop will be exhibited digitally to spark dialogue about the evolving relationship between design, technology, and culture.
