Performances

Panel 1

Many of us wear multiple hats—artist-researcher, teacher-designer, curator-entrepreneur. This conversation looks at how our varied roles and mediums allow us to express the richness of who we are. Can these multiplicities deepen self-expression, or do they pull us in conflicting directions?

Read more

Panel 2

This panel brings together voices from across disciplines to explore what becomes possible when we collaborate outside of traditional boundaries. How can cross-field conversations help us move away from destructive production cycles—and toward more expansive ways of thinking and making?

Closing Ceremony

Panel 1

Digital tools are often created with specific, goal-driven purposes. But what happens when we use them playfully or experimentally—outside the logic of efficiency? This discussion invites us to imagine new ways of working with technology, or even subverting it.

Panel 2

This panel questions binary views of our world—digital vs. physical, real vs. virtual. How can we move beyond these separations and begin to see our environments, tools, and selves as part of one complex, interconnected reality?

Read more

Panel 3

How do our environments shape us — and how do we shape them in return? This conversation explores practices rooted in bodily perception, environmental narratives, and post-digital materialities.
