Winter School Unfolding Data Through Art took place in Reykjavik from October 27–30, 2026. A total of 20 students from around the world participated in a four-day program where the focus was on research in the arts and digital humanities, and work with data and artificial intelligence.
In the Winter School, participants worked with various AI models, created and organized their own datasets, and examined how decisions about data collection and processing affect the results. The preservation, distribution, and exhibition of time- and technology-based artworks were also discussed.
The program took place at the University of Iceland, Iceland University of the Arts, and the National Gallery of Iceland under the guidance of Nicola Privato from the University of Iceland, Majella Clarke from Iceland University of the Arts, and Sigríður Regína Sigurþórsdóttir from the University of Iceland and the National Gallery of Iceland.
The winter school was organized by the Center for Digital Humanities and Arts, the Intelligent Instruments Lab at the University of Iceland, Iceland University of the Arts, and the National Gallery of Iceland, with support from the DARIAH Digital Arts and Humanities Training and Summer School Small Grants Call 2026.
