Overview

The fields of art and design are undergoing a transformative shift as we enter the post-digital age, where computation, aesthetics, machine learning, and ethical design converge. As artificial intelligence (AI), ubiquitous computing, and automated systems increasingly shape our world, creative practices are being redefined. Artists, designers, curators, and theorists must navigate a complex landscape in which digital tools function not only as mediums but as collaborators. The integration of AI and machine learning technologies into creative workflows opens new aesthetic possibilities while raising urgent questions about authorship, bias, automation, and the sustainability of digital culture. Explorations in Post-Digital Design: Aesthetics, Computational Creativity, and Sustainability critically explores how post-digital conditions are transforming the ways we create, curate, and design. This book foregrounds critical, experimental, and socially engaged practices that leverage digital technologies not simply for innovation, but for impact - aligning with principles of ""design for good."" Covering topics such as authorship and creative agency, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and sustainable design futures, this book is an excellent academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, educators, and professionals working across design, technology, curation, sustainability, and more.
