Synthetic Memories is an initiative that preserves at-risk personal memories by converting spoken descriptions into visual images using Generative AI. An interviewer helps select a memory, and a prompter uses the oral description to create a GenAI prompt. The interviewee then gives feedback to refine the generated images until one aligns with their recollection. The session ends with the person receiving a printed copy of their synthetic memory.

Domestic Data Streamers
Domestic Data Streamers is a collective from Barcelona comprising journalists, researchers, coders, artists, data scientists, and designers who have been focusing on exploring new data languages and their social implications since 2013. Their research and work translate into films, installations, digital experiences, performances, and exhibitions in a wide range of contexts such as schools, prisons, movie theaters, museums, the streets of many cities, and even the United Nations Headquarters.
