Lina Ruth Harder

I research how artificial intelligence brings historical figures into conversation through chatbots, voice clones, and generated images. At the University of Bergen’s Center for Digital Narrative (CDN), I combine critical research with creative practice to explore what these encounters mean for cultural memory.

Who owns an AI-generated likeness? How do we address bias and consent?
What happens when archives fall silent or history is rewritten by machines?

I build and test AI-driven narrative experiences to understand how they shape our engagement with the past. My earlier work in German museums encompassed curation, communication, exhibitions, and digital content.

I welcome collaborations, invited talks, research partnerships, curatorial projects, and peer review. Contact me by email.
