🎓 ANDROIDICA FUTURE OF WORK WORKSHOPS

Androidica invites artists, creatives, technologists, and cultural practitioners to join us for the first in our Future of Work Workshop series, delivered in collaboration with UtopiaArts.

This one-day workshop will bring together a vibrant group of thinkers and makers to explore:
  • How digital, immersive, and Web3 technologies are reshaping work and workplaces
  • Personal experiences and expectations of working futures
  • How we can collectively shape accessible and inclusive futures for artists and creatives

​Your insights will contribute to our Living Insight Report — a resource that will track real-world experiences and help inform Androidica's future programs and access support strategies.
Androidica is a community, academy and performance venue in an accessible, user-friendly virtual space for disadvantaged, neurodiverse and disabled creatives (‘Creatives’). Androidica will pioneer new routes into the future of work for Creatives in a digital and evolving AI-driven landscape. 

Our mission is to tackle head on job inequality offering education and community to help artists and creatives gain the necessary skills and knowledge to thrive in the evolving job market impacted by technology. Androidica's online components both digital and virtual are key to democratising access and providing opportunities for our target demographic.
We recognise that to truly make an impact, we must extend our reach beyond our immediate circle.
We're eager to engage with the broader Innovate UK network, seeking collaborative opportunities, shared insights, and diverse perspectives.
We acknowledge that we're at the beginning of this journey and that we have much to learn.
