A one day conference exploring the intersection of writing and technology.
This event takes place in the British Library.
Join us for a fascinating programme of presentations and panel discussions examining where and how creative writing and emerging technologies meet.
Presented in partnership with Bath Spa University, MIX 2023 is an opportunity for scholars and practitioners to come together to share current research and practice in the rapidly developing field of storytelling in immersive environments.
Talk themes include interactive and locative works, text in immersive media, digital and film poetry, narrative games, digital preservation, archiving and curation, and storytelling with AI. There will also be an opportunity for attendees to experience VR works of poetry and literature.
Our keynote speaker is Adrian Hon, the co-founder and CEO at Six to Start, creators of the world’s best selling smartphone fitness game, Zombies, Run!, which is showcased in the British Library’s Digital Storytelling exhibition.
MIX 2023 is a forum to celebrate innovative and experimental writing, and to predict what new forms of digital storytelling may arise in the near future.
