What are the impacts of AI scraping on the digital heritage sector and wider digital commons? And how are artists and creators using - and reimagining - the digital commons in the AI age? You’re invited to join the event “AI and the Digital Commons: Perspectives from artists, online collections & archives” taking place on 15 July, 2026, in the Netherlands.

The event is hosted by the Netherlands Institute for Sound & Vision and the University of Edinburgh, as part of the ekip initiative, along with AIxDESIGN.
