THIRD THURSDAYS | Featuring THE BASS DIALOGUES with artist LAWRENCE LEK

A thought-provoking discussion unfolds with artist Lawrence Lek and Claudia Mattos—Associate Curator at the Moody Center for the Arts at Rice University, Houston, TX and former Associate Curator of New Media at The Bass—discussing the ethical and cultural implications of AI as both subject and storyteller.

Framed around the exhibition Lawrence Lek: NOX Pavilion—a newly-commissioned multimedia installation exploring artificial intelligence and the emotional dimensions of technology—the conversation examines questions of narrative, simulation, and the evolving boundaries between human and machine.
