AI: Summary March 2026 was a month of deepening conceptual and practical work around a single core question: what does it mean to work with knowledge in space, and how do we move knowledge between flat, framed interfaces and XR environments without simply transplanting one medium’s habits into another? The community explored this through hands-on… Continue reading March Journal recap
