AI, Art and Media - StrangeNew.World @ 310 Coffee

We are a community of artists, thinkers, technicians, and curious minds from all walks of life exploring how technology can serve human flourishing in 2026!

This week our normal meeting will be followed by a StrangeNew.World sponsored party that goes from 5pm till 8pm'ish. As to existing members, please come to the meeting and feel free to invite your friends and family to the after party! There will be a robot DJ and much much more! 🥳

Whether if you're an AI enthusiast or skeptic, a creative professional or someone just beginning to navigate our rapidly changing world, this group is for you! The conversations we have at our “support group for the technological singularity” are designed to meet everyone at their level of understanding - no technical background required, just an open mind and genuine curiosity about our collective future.

How do we preserve community, creativity, connection, and purpose in this new age? Our focus for 2026 is to build out our community into somewhere between a participatory lab, an art salon and a social group. So we will be talking about and experimenting with LLMs, vibe coding and AI generated imagery and sound. We discuss the ethical and cultural implications of this new powerful set of tools as well as trade tips, discuss use cases and share workflows for getting the most out of this new era. We are also open to discussing anything relating to technology, culture, and the arts. Our meetings have a super casual and open atmosphere where all are welcome to contribute. Feel free to come late or leave early.

And I will (as always) be encouraging people to create art and will be translating for non-geeks. So, no matter if you love technology, or if you think it is destroying the very fabric of our society, or if you are just starting to experiment with AI to help better market yourself or your business, we would love to help get you started and/or learn more about your experiences.
