Vancouver AI Community Meetup: April 30Vancouver AI Community Meetup: #WebSummitVancouver AI: June 25
🎶 Revival by K-Phi-A Collective 🎶
A live-coded séance where the dead composers hum through machines and the living riff with the ghosts.
K-Phi-A is co-composing with AI trained on both their own sonic DNA and the archived echoes of long-gone masters. Built inside the Metacreation Lab’s bleeding-edge creative stack, Revival is what happens when generative systems stop imitating and start improvising.
This isn’t some tech demo disguised as art. It’s a negotiation between human intent and algorithmic suggestion. Messy, responsive, alive.
The sound? Electroacoustic meets experimental electronic—stitched in real time. The visuals? Autolume by VJ Amagi—a custom visual synthesizer that listens, reacts, and refuses to behave.

This isn't subscription content—it's community infrastructure. The digital campfire where tomorrow's questions get asked today.
THE $10K DATA STORYTELLING HACKATHON:
Brittney and the folks at Rival Technologies are tired of data that doesn't say anything. They're throwing serious money ($2,500 per winner across four rounds) at people who can make numbers tell stories that actually matter.
Expect:
Raw, unfiltered insights from the bleeding edge
Deep dives into the philosophical quandaries of our time
Hands-on exploration of tools that are reshaping reality
Real talk about the promises and perils ahead
This is a space for:
The curious and the courageous
The skeptics and the dreamers
Those who see technology not as an end, but as a means to amplify human potential
Anyone ready to engage with the big questions of our time

THE FINE PRINT:
Limited to 200 human bodies
Will sell out, just like every other VAI event
Bring stickers to trade. Yes, we're serious. Analog connection in a digital world.
