There's still time to join us for Listening Care + Fully, a muti-layered spatial inquiry into 17 Russell Square, the site of the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, explored through film, portraiture, installation and archival documentation.

The project moves across temporal and material registers to examine both the present-day condition of Charles Clore House and the longer histories embedded in the site.

Working through a decolonial framework, Listening Care + Fully proposes an expanded understanding of the archive – not as a fixed repository, but as something spatial, embodied, and continually produced.

This free exhibition is open to the public through the end of September. It was curated by Nothando Lunga, a South African spatial researcher, architect and educator. Her work explores the intersection of memory, justice, and spatial legacies. It was curated by Nothando during her time as a School of Advanced Study Creative Practitioner in Residence based within IALS.

We’re delighted to share Navigating the AI Landscape for Arts, Culture and Knowledge Exchange, an interactive workshop from the National Centre for Academic and Cultural Exchange (NCACE), taking place on 9 November 2026 at Senate House, London.

As AI continues to reshape the ways organisations communicate, create, collaborate and engage audiences, this workshop will explore how Artificial Intelligence can support innovation, research translation and knowledge exchange across arts, culture and higher education.

The session will combine practical exploration, collaborative discussion and critical reflection, exploring the opportunities, limitations and ethical questions surrounding AI in different professional contexts.

Facilitated by Rupert Lorraine from the University of Plymouth and Approachable AI, the workshop will support participants to:

• demystify AI and develop a shared understanding around how these systems work
• build confidence in using AI tools and approaches within professional contexts
• explore the ethical dimensions of AI and what responsible use looks like
• identify practical ways to strengthen innovation capacity using AI

No prior AI experience is required.
