This lively series of conversations and demonstrations among artists, engineers, scientists, critics, thought leaders, and creative technologists is an opportunity for our community to engage in public debate as we think aloud together about the promise and peril of our rapidly changing world. These gatherings amplify the dialogue surrounding our artists’ output, offering deeper reflection, discussion, and engagement with ideas and community that extend far beyond the performance space.
