Now in its eighth year, Bath Spa University’s MIX has established itself as an innovative forum for the discussion and exploration of writing and technology, bringing together researchers, writers, technologists and practitioners from around the world to make, think and talk.
After our unique collaboration with the British Library in 2023, MIX 2025 will be hosted in the beautiful city of Bath at Bath Spa University’s Locksbrook Campus.
As part of our programme, New York Times bestselling writer and publisher Michael Bhaskar, currently working for Microsoft AI and co-author of the book The Coming Wave: AI, Power and the 21st Century’s Greatest Dilemma, will appear in conversation.
MIX is situated within Bath Spa University’s world-class Creative Writing department within the School of Writing, Publishing and Humanities, as well as the Centre for Cultural and Creative Industries, which also co-hosts the online magazine of writing and technology, The Writing Platform. Mix 2025 is part of the My World programme, which explores the future of creative technology innovation.
Interested in joining us?
We are looking for proposals for either 15-minute papers or presentations or 5-minute lightening talks from technologists, artists, writers and poets working in the digital realm as well as academic researchers and independent scholars. We are particularly interested in the work and views of creators, audiences and communities currently underrepresented across writing and technology.
Themes for this year's discussions include:
• Trust and Truth in Digital Writing
• Generative AI Tools for Writers
• AI and Ethics
