This year's January Digital Art Season at LCB Depot, now called Computala, was a great success. The Organisers, Sean and Nush from New Media Art Club, put in a huge amount of effort, as shown in the quality of the artworks on show and the events they organised. One of the standout pieces for me was My Deepfake Dad by Sarah Sweeney. A very thought-provoking and very well-made artwork.

I contributed to the event in several ways. First, I was able to show my new artwork, Computational Constructs, as part of the main exhibition. This was an opportunity to showcase the artwork in its live version for the first time. Built around the idea of "interacting art systems", the new work generates live images and sound as it constantly reorganises itself. Next, I ran a drop-in workshop for young people that made use of the Micro:bit to teach core Artificial Intelligence (AI) concepts. The Micro:bit CreateAI platform proved to be very useful in enabling this. Finally, at the closing event, I showed my new project, Music for Humans and Robots, which took the form of a "semi-composed" live performance featuring me and the Computational Constructs software. I was fairly happy with the results. You can see a video here. Thanks to event curator Leonie DuBarry-Gurr for allowing me to do it.

Well done to New Media Art Club for putting the programme together. They are asking for feedback on this year's activities here. Their project was supported by Arts Council England.
