Check back with us in February for the announcement of this year’s featured exhibitions!
Join us for this workshop led by Dorsey Kaufmann, part of Digital Ghosts exhibition programme.
Come along to this workshop to experience “digital ghosts” with artist Dorsey Kaufmann to discover for yourself how data visulisation can help us to better understand archives and their cultural significance.
This workshop explores “digital ghosts”—data that evolves, disappears, or behaves unpredictably. Led by artist Dorsey Kaufmann, whose work transforms Scottish web archive data into immersive visual experiences, you’ll get to examine how visual design can reveal patterns of digital disappearance and question how cultural memory is shaped by what is saved and what is lost.
We’ll begin with an exhibition walk-through of interactive visualisations addressing absence and missing-ness in data, then create our own visual metaphors using cyanotype, light, and other tactile media to illuminate archival gaps.
Designed for those working with non-linear or messy data, the session invites participants to bring questions and ideas for engaging with both presence and absence. Together, we’ll examine how archival choices shape what is remembered or forgotten, challenging the notion of data as whole or objective and reflecting on the narratives hidden in what’s lost or never captured.
This workshop has limited capacity and so registration is preferred. Participants with tickets are guaranteed entry, drop-in attendance is welcome, but will be on a first come first served basis.
If you have any enquiries about the events and the venue, please contact us at designinformatics@ed.ac.uk .
Please note this workshop will be photographed, and may be used for future marketing, promotional or archive purposes. If you would prefer not to be photographed, please let us know at the event.

Dorsey Kaufmann is a data visualisation designer, artist, and researcher who creates interactive data interfaces and participatory art installations. Employing digital design, data visualisation, code, sculpture, video, and technology; her work embodies the intimate and personal aspects of data collection and use – concerning people’s health, homes, local environment, and body politics. Her research further examines the use of visualisation as a creative medium to increase data literacy and shape human cognition, attitudes and behaviour in relation to the natural environment (see Nature article).
Join us for this exhibition late and panel discussion, part of Digital Ghosts exhibition programme.
Step into the forgotten corners of the internet with an exhibition that transforms real web archive data into playful, thought-provoking artworks. From vanished websites to fading digital traces, this exhibition invites you to reflect on what’s preserved, what’s lost, and what that reveals about our identities and values.
As the lines blur between online and offline life, the exhibition asks: who decides what’s worth remembering, and how does that shape our shared story?
During the Exhibition Late, the team behind the project will host a panel discussion on Scotland’s digital footprints. We’ll explore how web archives are created, what gets included or left out, and why those choices matter, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the politics of web preservation.

Coleman Tharpe is an independent heritage researcher based in Edinburgh, Scotland. His research explores the interactions between cultural heritage and Generative AI. In addition to academic research, his practice includes areas such as equity, inclusion, and accessibility in digital transformation, data governance, and community and creative heritage strategy and implementation.
After decades of AI cycles—hype, collapse, resurgence—we find ourselves in a new emotional terrain: not one of domination or replacement, but of resonance.
I & AI: Mirror(Co-Authoring Identity in the Mirror Realm) is an interactive mirror-world where audiences and AI observe, reflect, and shape one another.
Set within a softly responsive, ambient environment, participants move through three experiential phases: interaction, interpretation, and intimacy. The AI does not simply display data—it listens, learns, and gradually reveals how it perceives human presence. As interactions accumulate, participants’ inputs are transformed into co-authored outputs. By integrating immersive technologies with AI—such as motion capture, generative AI, augmented reality, and spatial augmented reality—the work transforms your input into real-time, dynamic mosaics of identity.
The AI becomes more “I-like” (I-dentity), while the human becomes entangled in the AI-dentity. By softening traditional techno-aesthetics and foregrounding emotion, transparency, and co-creation, I & AI: Mirror invites co-reflection—rethinking identity as something constructed in tandem with intelligent systems.
I & AI: Mirror
An immersive installation exploring Human–AI intimacy
Throughout the exhibition, audiences’ input becomes part of a shared memory network. These traces are visualised and interpreted in a scheduled live performance, at 6pm on Friday the 24th October, where human performers, audio-visual artist and dancers, collaborate with the AI in real time to embody this growing relational “I”dentity and “AI”dentity. Through this installation and the accompanying performance AI’s process is made transparent and explainable—not hidden behind opaque systems, but revealed through dynamic visuals and emotional cues that invite audiences into its learning logic.
AI can be seen as collaborator, predator; mentor, manipulator; listener, snitch; lover, rebound partner. This work seeks to create a version of AI that is more ‘I-like’ (I-dentity), where the human becomes entangled in the “AI”dentity, questioning if it is possible to meaningfully co-author with AI.
This project is led by Jiarong Yu, and developed through Co-STEAM, an experimental platform founded by Jiarong to explore human–human–AI cocreativity and transdisciplinary embodied learning across Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM).

Picture Your Poisons is an intimate portrait of a cancer treatment journey by Caitlin McDonald and Inge Panneels, who worked together in 2023, to create six glass casts representing visual references to the substances and processes forming Caitlin’s cancer treatments.
The glass casts in Picture Your Poisons ground viewers in the real-world material origins of systemic anti-cancer treatments through the specific lens of one patient’s course of treatment.
For Edinburgh Doors Open Day, we are delighted to welcome McDonald and Panneels, who will display one original glass cast, films featuring reflectance transformation imaging of all the casts, and informational leaflets for audiences to take away with them.
As our reliance on artificial intelligence (AI) grows, we invite you to reflect on what it reveals about our understanding of care and later life, and how to use AI tools responsibly.
Can AI Represent Care? project featured as part of Doors Open Day 2025 explores how AI-generated images can uncover biases and misconceptions about care in our society, and the role of technology in shaping these perceptions. What does care mean in our daily lives, and can AI ever understand care?
Can AI Represent Care? project is led by Melody Wang, PhD student at the University of Edinburgh, with a research focus on participatory design, older adults, and care technology as part of Images of Care project led by Dr. Nichole Fernandez, research fellow at the University of Edinburgh, visual sociologist and media studies.

LLooM is an interactive textile installation that invites people to share their own encounters with AI, by Kimberley Paradis, PhD student at the Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) for Responsible and Trustworthy Natural Language Processing (NLP).
For Doors Open Day 2025, Paradis invites you to write your own AI story on strips of fabric and weave together into a collective loom to create a physical tapestry. The weaving process turns individual contributions into a larger picture, showing how experiences of AI connect and diverge across everyday life.
The installation is designed to encourage open discussion about what it truly means for AI to succeed or fail, and how those ideas shift depending on context. It invites people to think about the role of AI in everyday life and as something that can shape emotions, choices, and relationships. By combining storytelling with textile craft, LLooM offers a way to slow down, share perspectives, and collectively reflect on the boundaries between human and artificial intelligence.
Kimberley is a PhD student in the CDT for Responsible and Trustworthy NLP, researching community-based approaches to NLP and exploring how participatory methods can make generative AI safer for Queer people by challenging technocratic structures and centering grassroots knowledge in AI and data governance.
Exploring Creative Flow with NeuroCreate
Would you like to consistently get into the zone and enter Flow states? Dr Shama Rahman’s research in the neuroscience & complex systems of creative cognition, has identified a signature brain pattern underlying ‘Flow’ mental states.
We know Flow states enable us to reach our creative potential and overall peak performance. Flow states also improve cognitive flexibility, are intrinsically motivating and increase engagement & attention, and importantly, being in Flow improves mood & stress resilience. Research has shown that training Flow can improve one’s cognitive abilities. Yet Flow remains an elusive state. In order to train it, we should know when we are in Flow in the first place!
Through her startup NeuroCreate, Dr Rahman has developed a participatory artwork and interface, Zeitgeist, that analyses whether participants are in a Flow state and represents their Flow visually.
For Doors Open Day 2025, Shama will share a working prototype that allows participants to choose their favourite colour, and the more in Flow they are, the more this colour will glow brighter as participants learn to associate this visualisation to how they feel internally. Two participants can do this together whilst they are engaged in collaborative activities together! Participants’ brain activity is measured through consumer wearables, and this is classified through deep-learning AI models developed by NeuroCreate.

Step into the forgotten corners of the internet with an exhibition that transforms real web archive data into playful, thought-provoking artworks. From vanished websites to fading digital traces, this exhibition invites you to reflect on what’s preserved, what’s lost, and what that reveals about our identities and values.
This exhibition is the outcome of an interdisciplinary project led by Dr Andrea Kocsis, in collaboration with multimedia artist Dorsey Kaufmann. Together, they assembled a team of archivists and librarians from the National Library of Scotland along with visualization developer Parker Kaufmann and Informatics MSc (Master of Science) students to explore novel computational and creative visualization techniques that enable public engagement with web archives.
Using exploratory visualization and interaction techniques, the exhibition pieces seek to uncover insights within the data and craft compelling visual narratives to engage wider audiences in the cultural significance of past, present and future web archives.
Three of the works were first created by Informatics MSc students Mansi Manoj, Qianhui Meng, and Shuyu Zhang under the supervision of Dorsey Kaufmann. Kaufmann and Parker recently launched their data visualization studio Feeling Data, which adapted and expanded the students’ projects for public interaction, as well as producing two new works. The ‘Digital Ghosts’ centrepiece is an artist commission in which Kaufmann experiments with physicalising web archive data through UV projection onto cyanotype.
