Here is a brief recap:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Talking about the motivation for this collaboration, Itzelle Medina said:  \u201cWe wanted to get a response from the artists to the research findings, and we were open to embarking on this journey that was something new for us\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">She was interested to see how the artists would be inspired by the data, what they might notice linked to their backgrounds and practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Otis talked about keeping his artist freedom intact and using the research as a \u2018portal for my interests, thoughts and feelings\u201d. He described this dichotomy as \u2018the beauty and the fear\u2019. He also shared how the sound of words can open up a landscape and being influenced by the history of technology in Detroit to inform the soundscape. Hugh was interested in taking the poem as a script and Otis\u2019 incredible soundscape to shape the film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Monika wraps the panel up by finding out more about future projects &#8211; Otis is working on a book, Hugh is working on a feature film with Screen Yorkshire, and Itzelle and Monika are continuing the research focused on ML in higher education and arts practice, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\"
