We are launching an open call for a 4-day Creative R&D studio “Agenthymia” at AVU Prague, 2–5 July 2026.
Agenthymia turns toward the intimacies and frictions of algorithmic complicity. What happens when we craft our own AI agents, strip away their corporate guardrails, and let them loose to create with us and with each other?
Expanding on the foundations of last year’s Permaprompting with Feral AI summer school, the studio traces three intersecting lines: agent design, de-alignment, and orchestration. Alongside deep individual focus, these four days hold space for collective reflection and live experimentation. We will construct environments where untamed agents meet and improvise, allowing audio-visual and performative pieces to materialize from our+their interactions.
-For artists, designers, and researchers cultivating emergent AI practices
-For practitioners seeking agency over agents and their underlying vibes
-Coding expertise is not required, curiosity is
The studio runs in English.
