We’re thrilled to share that PAST MAKES FUTURE returns on February 10th, 2025, at Portsmouth Guildhall. This year, the event takes on a more expansive and international focus, bringing together global artists, technologists, and heritage professionals to explore the intersection of emerging technologies, art, and cultural preservation.
Following the success of the 2024 edition, which featured contributions from the Royal Shakespeare Company, Aspex Portsmouth, and the Centre for Creative and Immersive Extended Reality, the 2025 conference promises to push boundaries even further.
Sponsored by the visionary Bored Peach Club, this event will spotlight radical innovation and collaboration, with key discussions led by international thought leaders.
We’re especially excited to highlight Thomas Buckley, an XR innovator currently in residency at the Pay Office with his transformative PLAY OFFICE project. Thomas’s work, which explores humanity’s connection to technology and heritage, embodies the ethos of Past Makes Future, merging cutting-edge tech with cultural storytelling.
Stay tuned for more details on speakers and topics as we prepare to reimagine the future of art and heritage at this landmark event. Save the date and join us in shaping tomorrow’s creative industries!
