An event by Ida Hwb at Wales Millennium Centre

A conversation with artists about AI 🤝 , an invitation to experience ScanLab’s FRAMERATE: Pulse of the Earth for free 🎟️, and a free pizza lunch. 🍕

Our lives have been flooded with AI tools and headlines. Everything feels as though it’s moving so fast, with little time to take a breath and have nuanced conversations about what AI means for us as creatives, as communities and as people. There’s pressure to have an opinion, learn new skills and make responsible choices, often without the time or information we need. This gathering offers a chance to slow down and untangle some of it together.

We’ll explore the connections between creative work, the environmental costs of AI, questions of access and power, and our emotional responses to it all. We’ll be joined by three speakers bringing perspectives from writing, movement, research and creative technology:

Jade E. Bradford, Author & Communications Professional: and PhD student in Creative Writing.

Lisa May Thomas, Dance artist-researcher: exploring somatic and movement improvisation practices, immersive technologies, participatory methods and climate justice.

Dr Jess Hoare, Researcher at the Centre for the Creative Economy: exploring AI’s impact on creative labour and the value of human creativity, and equality, diversity and inclusion in the creative industries.

Through a shared conversation, we’ll bring these big questions closer to everyday experience: the work we make, the tools we encounter and the choices being made around us. We’ll move between questions of individual, community and institutional responsibility.

We also want to hear from you. Your input will help us advocate for what the creative industries need to consider when engaging with AI, and what good leadership looks like in this fast-moving space.

This is an opportunity to come together in community, share experiences, and leave with fresh perspectives, practical advice, and collective wisdom in a supportive, uplifting space.

As always, Ida sessions are warm, informal, and open to women, trans, and non-binary people working in, or curious about, creative emerging technologies. You don't need to be an expert. Just bring your curiosity, experience, and a willingness to reflect together.

Join us, in person at Wales Millennium Centre for an afternoon of conversation, reflection and connection. This session is delivered as part of Ida Hwb, Ida's partnership with Wales Millennium Centre.

All attendees are invited to experience FRAMERATE: Pulse of the Earth (https://www.wmc.org.uk/en/whats-on/2026/framerate) by Scanlab Projects for free as part of the event, and we will provide a pizza lunch - please let us know your dietary requirements when you RSVP.

Llifogydd DA: Llywio Creadigrwydd, Moeseg a Gorlethu

Sgwrs gydag artistiaid am DA 🤝, gwahoddiad i brofi FRAMERATE: Pulse of the Earth gan ScanLab am ddim a pizza i ginio am ddim 🍕.

Mae ein bywydau yn gorlifo gydag adnoddau a phenawdau DA. Mae popeth yn teimlo fel petai’n symud mor gyflym, gyda braidd dim amser i gymryd anadl a chael sgyrsiau am beth mae DA yn ei olygu i ni fel pobl greadigol, fel cymunedau ac fel pobl. Mae pwysau i gael barn, dysgu sgiliau newydd a gwneud dewisiadau cyfrifol, yn aml heb yr amser na’r wybodaeth sydd eu hangen. Mae’r cyfarfod yma yn cynnig cyfle i arafu a datrys rhywfaint o hyn gyda’n gilydd.

Byddwn ni’n archwilio’r cysylltiadau rhwng gwaith creadigol, costau amgylcheddol DA, cwestiynau am hygyrchedd a phŵer a’n hymateb emosiynol i bopeth. Byddwn ni yng nghwmni tri siaradwr sy’n dod â safbwyntiau o ysgrifennu, symud, ymchwil a thechnoleg greadigol:

Jade E. Bradford, Awdur a Gweithiwr Cyfathrebu Proffesiynol: a myfyriwr PhD mewn Ysgrifennu Creadigol

Lisa May Thomas, Artist dawns-ymchwilydd: yn archwilio ymarferion byrfyfyr somatig a symud, technolegau ymdrochol, dulliau cyfranogol a chyfiawnder hinsawdd.

Dr Jess Hoare, Ymchwilydd yn y Ganolfan dros yr Economi Greadigol: yn archwilio effaith DA ar lafur creadigol a gwerth creadigrwydd dynol, a chydraddoldeb, amrywiaeth a chynhwysiant yn y diwydiannau creadigol.

Drwy sgwrs, byddwn ni’n dod â’r cwestiynau mawr yma yn nes at brofiad pob dydd: y gwaith a wnawn, yr adnoddau rydyn ni’n eu defnyddio a’r dewisiadau sy’n cael eu gwneud o’n cwmpas. Byddwn ni’n symud rhwng cwestiynau am gyfrifoldeb unigol, cymunedol a sefydliadol.

Rydyn ni hefyd eisiau clywed gennych chi. Bydd eich mewnbwn yn ein helpu i eirioli dros yr hyn mae angen i'r diwydiannau creadigol ei ystyried wrth ymgysylltu â DA a sut olwg sydd ar arweinyddiaeth dda yn y gofod yma sy'n symud yn gyflym.

Mae hwn yn gyfle i ddod at ei gilydd mewn cymuned, rhannu profiadau, a gadael gyda safbwyntiau ffres, cyngor ymarferol a doethineb ar y cyd mewn gofod cefnogol a chalonogol.

Fel bob amser, mae sesiynau Ida yn gynnes, anffurfiol, ac yn agored i fenywod, pobl draws ac anneuaidd sy'n gweithio mewn, neu sy'n chwilfrydig am, dechnolegau creadigol datblygol. Does dim angen i
