The sixth in our new series, Bytes, where Ash and Katie discuss 3 things from the latest Digital Works Newsletter.
In this episode we'll be discussing some of the links in the newsletter that went out on January 29th.
We talk about:
- Hugh Wallace asking 'is it time to shake up your social media', the Association of Cultural Enterprises leaving X, and X being flooded with offensive AI fakes of Taylor Swift (the AI assistant in our podcast platform wanted to title this episode "Explore the ethical battlefield of digital platforms" which I think neatly sums up the tone of our discussion!).
- The work the National Gallery is doing on social media (particularly on Threads and Tiktok) and why it's working.
- A great long read about the failed collaboration between immersive theatre company, Punchdrunk, and games company, Niantic.
You can sign up for the newsletter at thedigital.works.
