Very happy to be able to share a new paper from the Our Water Futures
project. It describes a four-part participatory film method project I developed with Rowena Potts and a group of children from Yarra City precinct.

We made it to #idc2024 in Delft and hosted a workshop to identify avenues for CCI research to engage with environmental sustainability. Please get in touch with me, Andrea Gauthier, or Mina Vasalou (UCL Knowledge Lab) if would like to be part of these ongoing discussions!

My latest for @Nature: AI's environmental costs are soaring. The new energy-hungry models for video, text, and image could create an energy crisis - and impact drinking water reserves. We urgently need action from industry, researchers, and legislators. nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
We have kicked off our fieldwork at the Digital Future School in partnership with @MonashTS and @MonashDFI. Supporting student-led imaginings of the future school that considers AI and climate scenarios with @YolandeStreng @Neil_Selwyn @Kari_LDahlgren @fakaviani @MWagnerRedChair

🎧NEW PODCAST! 🎧 Want to understand AI with deeper context? We've launched a pod series on how AI is trained to interpret the world. Each ep has a research theme: from the social, legal, cultural, environmental & political impacts of generative AI. knowingmachines.org/podcast 👇📻
Researchers working in #children #environment and #digitaltechnology are invited to submit a paper to this International Journal of Child-Computer Interaction special issue. Due 1 March 2024. @avasalou @AndreaDGauthier @IDC_ACM @ozchiconf @sigchi sciencedirect.com/journal/in…
We are so excited to announce that our film #Requiem has been selected to screen in Paris as part of the Pariscience International Science Film Festival in October. It was a joy composing the music for this work. Congrats to the @archivalfuturescollective

Huge congratulations @YolandeStreng! 👏 👏 – at Melbourne, Victoria
❓What are opportunities and risks of home helper robots, and how can we make anthropomorphised #AI better❓
@YolandeStreng's $1M @arc_gov_au Future Fellowship will investigate these critical questions - learn more now: mtr.cool/suuwynjxpa

As part of #IT4EnvironmentalSustainability at #MonashOpenDay, Professors @YolandeStreng, Juliana Sutanto and Bernd Meyer explored the topic 'AI, Data Science and the Environment - Collision or Collaboration?', and raised new questions/possibilities/considerations @monashinfo.
Today we have been showcasing some of the wonderful #IT4EnvironmentalSustainability projects going on within @MonashInfotech as part of #MonashOpenDay. Thanks to all the wonderful researchers who took part! – at Melbourne, Victoria
#OurWaterStories led by myself and Rowena Potts where we support child researchers to explore water in their everyday and possibilities for water futures. – at Melbourne, Victoria
