Award-winning directors [Michaela Ternasky-Holland](https://michaelaternaskyholland.com/?utm_source=luma) and [Aaron Santiago](https://aaron.work/?utm_source=luma) are building worlds at the cutting edge of AI, VR, and immersive media. ​Rather than create for spectacle, their aim is to collapse the distance between strangers. ​​In collaboration with the [National Arts Club](https://www.nacnyc.org/?utm_source=luma) and its [Art and Technology Committee](https://www.nacnyc.org/arts-and-programs/committees?utm_source=luma), this conversation will reveal how they use generative AI, motion capture, 360° cinematography, projection mapping, and volumetric capture to tell stories that cross lines of culture, ability, and lived experience. ​From Emmy-winning VR documentaries screened at Tribeca and Cannes to experimental AI films created with OpenAI's SORA, Ternasky-Holland and Santiago work where technology stops being a tool and starts becoming a language. ​They'll discuss their solo projects, their collaborations, and the question at the heart of their practice: Does technology inspire art, or does art give technology meaning? ​Whether you're a creator, technologist, or just curious about where storytelling is headed, this is a rare chance to hear from two artists shaping the future of how we connect. ​​Reserve your spot and arrive early. Space is limited.
