For Jen Crichlow, art and technology are inseparable.
Her involvement at arts festivals of all stripes revealed the digital divide that affects everything from event management to the preservation of culture.
So she enrolled in grad school to explore how tech inequity disproportionately affects underrepresented and marginalized arts communities and movements.
Now as an executive at SAVVI AI, she’s making machine learning accessible to companies and nonprofits that don’t have legions of data scientists and software developers at their disposal.
And Jen gets to work with artists every day as she and her SAVVI colleagues are building something that doesn't exist. While she might have debated that classification ten years ago, her answer today is unequivocal: “Yes, it’s art. It's absolutely novel. It's creative.”
