gatherings

Our gatherings feature an eclectic and international line-up of speakers who reveal just how much in our culture is changing because of digitisation. These gatherings bring us face to face with the digital society, in the company of the businesses and investors who are making it happen, the artists who are trying to find meaning in it, and the academics, and policy makers who are trying make sense of it.

DT1: The inaugural gathering, in Ballina, County Mayo, in May 2018. People came from around the world. It was interesting. We all had fun and learned something.

DT2: To celebrate the exhibition of our first Digital Society artist, Leah Hilliard, we returned to Ballina to explore her take on knowledge in a digitised society, and to listen to the take of some very smart people.

Seán Rocks talks to visual artist Leah Hillard about her reimagining of the Irish legend The Salmon of Knowledge for the digital age.
