CHAT

CHAT brings together ACM students on our Masters pathway in co-creation and creative health, our tutors with a wealth of experience delivering music programs in community and health settings and Rosetta Life, an arts-in-health charity with 25 years of evidence-led practice. We work with a “One World Health” approach, connecting planetary health, healthcare systems and individual wellbeing through creative health and creative technology. 

We believe technology needs to be human-led and co-designed, not driven by software alone. That means:

  • Access to the arts: using digital arts and technology to help proven creative health and wellbeing programmes reach more people, cost-effectively.
  • Connecting people: using technology to bring people together to co-produce creative projects.
  • Caring for what technology strains: using evidenced creative health approaches to support people adversely affected by technology.

Our work spans remote collaboration, accessible and affordable creative health support, healthier digital experiences, and the potential of gaming, theatre, VR and immersive technology for wellbeing. We are based in Birmingham, London and Guildford, and work nationally.

CHAT is an invitation to explore this future with us. To get involved, contact ACMX@ACM.AC.UK
