Three years since its launch, Screen Walks – a collaborative project by Fotomuseum Winterthur and The Photographers’ Gallery – is extending its livestream programme to a series of IRL activities.
The Screen Walks Weekend will continue the playful yet critical exploration of the world of digital images and online visual culture: from exploring TikTok screens with Nina Davies to searching for minerals on the banks of the Thames with Max Dovey, from collective AI image creation activities to a tour of the media powers that occupy Soho with Alistair Gentry.
All activities are free but RSVP is required.

14.00 AI Exquisite Corpse
Visitors to the gallery on Saturday afternoon, 14.00 – 17.00, can partake in the collective creation of a surrealist image through the use of contemporary AI generative software. Each participant is asked to contribute to the exquisite corpse with a prompt extending the image using Dall-E’s “outpainting” feature. Join the game while engaging in conversation about AI and machine learning in the field of imaging systems with other creators. The final image will be sent to all co-creators.
15.00 A Sleazy Tour of Soho and Fitzrovia
Alistair Gentry leads a Sleazy Tour of Soho and Fitzrovia, taking in key London locations of the Media Entertainment Industrial Complex.
