The World Monuments Summit brings together World Monuments Fund’s (WMF) global team of experts, supporters, partners, thought leaders, and guests for a series of discussions on heritage preservation at Rockefeller Center in New York City, home to WMF’s headquarters.

PLAYING MODELS aims to address the fundamental conceptual and technological shifts that AI and computational storytelling instruments have introduced to design and engineering disciplines and how they are transforming millennia-old traditions of architecture and design thinking. This conference is at the vanguard of artificial intelligence and design and aims to produce reliable and valid data about implementing new technologies in architectural design practice. The purpose of the conference is to compile experiences in implementing AI and computational storytelling instruments to create models of architectural design. The conference is intended to bring together researchers, practitioners, philosophers, and theorists across multiple disciplines to discuss new paradigms of architectural thinking and production.
