Line-up

Edmond Yang joins the line-up: AI artist from Oslo, creative partner to Runway, Luma and Pika.

Vi­su­al artist from Oslo and an award-win­ning AI artist who works on the oth­er side of the tools: he is a cre­ative part­ner to the gen­er­a­tive plat­forms them­selves, among them Run­way, Luma AI, Pika and Kling AI. Be­fore that, twen­ty-five years in ad­ver­tis­ing and tele­vi­sion, with cam­paigns for Nike, SAS, Te­lenor and Helly Hansen.

Who

Edmond Yang

Artist · Creative Director · Founder

Visual artist from Oslo and an award-winning AI artist, working across design, visual communication and UX since 2001, when he set up his own studio, first as Yangmedia and today as Edmond Yang Enterprises. He is a creative partner to the generative platforms themselves, among them Runway, Luma AI, Pika, Kling AI, Hailuo, Freepik and Viggle, and a co-founder of AIAIAI, a Norwegian AI studio he started in 2024.

His route there ran through broadcast and advertising: bumpers and on-air graphics at never.no through the 2000s, then online campaigns for Telenor, SAS and Nike at Dinamo, identity and motion work for IBM, Telenor and Bama at Gyro, and the Helly Hansen brand online at Bates, alongside Microsoft. Between 2019 and 2023 he ran XVR, a studio producing virtual tours for the property market, and co-founded the agency Oslo Digital.

What runs through all of it is a habit of testing a new technology as an artist and then asking what it sells: he has taken the same route through AI art, NFTs and web3, and outside media he has built ventures of his own, from an arctic seafood supplement brand with its own plant in Røst to a men's accessories label handmade in Italy.

A showcase of the Nordic AI scene: creators and companies from the north show what they are working on and then take questions from the room. It is a chance to see a market that built its production differently from the Polish one, with different funding, a different attitude to risk and a different pace of adopting tools. Useful for anyone thinking about co-production, about going abroad, or simply curious how the same work is done elsewhere.Read more Line-upMarc Horgues: Co-founder and creative director of OKCC, a creative and innovation agency in Paris.Appeared at Warsaw Glitch 2026 in 2 programme slots: “Nouvelle Vague 2.0 - French AI Scene Showcase” (Friday, Aug 28, 16:00, ACADEMY), “FROM SET TO SYNTHETIC: inside the new AI advertising workflow” (Saturday, Aug 29, 12:05, ACADEMY).Read more Line-upMatthew Szewczyk: Los Angeles-based, genre-agnostic filmmaker and creative director now directing AI work with The Dor BrothersAppeared at Warsaw Glitch 2026 in 3 programme slots: “Press conference” (Friday, Aug 28, 12:30, ACADEMY), “FROM THE DIRECTOR'S CHAIR TO GENERATIVE AI” (Friday, Aug 28, 13:30, WARSAWJS), “FROM SET TO SYNTHETIC: inside the new AI advertising workflow” (Saturday, Aug 29, 12:05, ACADEMY).Read more
