TKS - The Knowledge SocietyCodeDay

India's First AI Creator Festival

Where creators build with AI. Film. Fashion. The future.

AINÉRA is not a conference. Not a competition. It is a gathering of minds who refuse to accept the boundaries of traditional creativity. Three days where filmmakers become architects of AI-generated worlds, and fashion designers craft digital garments that exist only in pixels and imagination. Here, people design ramp walks that never existed, with models the world is yet to recognize. This is AINÉRA — where AI is shaping a new era.

A letter to you

by AINÉRA · 2026

Three days. Three pillars. Infinite possibilities.

AINÉRA is not a conference. Not a competition. It is a gathering of minds who refuse to accept the boundaries of traditional creativity.

Here, filmmakers become architects of AI-generated worlds. Fashion designers craft digital garments that exist only in pixels and imagination. Creators from every corner of India converge to build what does not yet exist.

The first pillar is film. Not just movies — but stories written by algorithms, characters born from code, and narratives that blur the line between human and machine. The AI film festival celebrates those who dare to tell stories differently.

The second pillar is fashion. Where couture meets computation. Digital wearables, AI-generated textiles, and virtual runways. The AI fashion week is a glimpse into a wardrobe of the future.

The third pillar is the summit. Hands-on sessions with bleeding-edge tools. Workshops that turn curiosity into capability. Connections with builders who speak your language.

This is your invitation to be part of something that does not follow the rules. Because the future of creativity belongs to those who build it.
