This roundtable invites you into a shared space for reflecting on what it means to age alongside technology. Together, we will explore how memory, forgetting, and time shape our relationship to digital life, and how experiences of obsolescence are felt in the body, in work, and in everyday habits.

‍

Through guided reflection, storytelling, and discussion, participants are invited to share lived experiences, thoughts, and unfinished stories. You might recall a technology that shaped your coming of age, a skill you were encouraged to leave behind, or a moment where you felt out of sync with the pace of change.

‍

Join us for an afternoon of collective reflection, conversation, and story telling. No preparation is needed, and sharing is always optional. Silence, listening, and half-formed thoughts are welcome.

Using accessible AI tools, you will “vibe design” your own object — moving from feeling to image to 3D form. Through guided prompts and experimentation, you will generate and shape a design that reflects how you want to live with your device, rather than be led by it.

‍

The workshop is open to anyone curious about spending less time on their phone, becoming more present at home, or exploring new ways of creating with AI and 3D tools. Whether you are completely new to 3D or already familiar, this session offers a different, intuitive approach to making. 

‍

You will leave with a ready-to-print 3D file, and perhaps a new ritual for where your phone belongs. 

‍

We will provide access to the tools (Leonardo AI and Meshy AI). Please bring your own laptop.

We cannot wait to spend a long weekend with new and old friends exploring softer directions for digital futures.

‍

This is a separatist coding club for people who fall somewhere on the queer spectrum, in order to create a social space different from what you might find at work or at school. No level of coding skills required, newbies very welcome! But please note that the organizers are not facilitating a coding class. Everyone is bringing their own projects. Questions, helping each other and chit chat is encouraged. Drop by for an hour or the whole day. We will provide snacks, bring your own laptop.
