A special from Edinburgh, where art and performance meet tech with spectacular results. Including a magician with robot assistants, an AI improv group and an electrifying dance act.

Every August, Edinburgh becomes the centre of the arts world, with half a million visitors and thousands of acts descending on the Scottish capital. Among these are performers using some pioneering tech, asking questions about the role of AI in our lives and even a choreographer stimulating his dancers’ muscles with electricity.

Tell us about your own mini-adventure with tech by emailing [email protected] or sending us a Whatsapp voice note to +44 330 1230 320.

Presenter and producer: Imran Rahman-Jones Editor: Monica Soriano
