Book Your TicketsCould AI be the way to soothe grief and prolong life after death, or could technology be racing too fast for regulation to steer a safe and steady course?
World premiere of Dust to Data
Jump on board for an evening of technological exploration, and envision a future where digital immortality becomes a reality. As part of the 2023 FilmBath Festival, watch the world premiere of Dust to Data to explore the important impact of technology on grief, mortality and digital legacies.
As part of a live film debate on 26 October at Widcombe Social Club, audiences are invited to watch four short film monologues that each explore relatable near future stories of the opportunities and threats posed by different aspects of digital afterlives.
Four thought-provoking films
The four films will be followed by quick-fire live surveys that will help the audience and the creators discover how prepared as a society we are to embrace or reject the emergence of AI immortality.
All responses will be gathered together by Dorothy House and published to give the public a voice in the future development and regulation of these fast-moving technologies.
These films are the product of an exciting partnership between Dorothy House, Kilter Theatre and students at the Universities of Bath and Bristol.
