Dark Matter II at Machine Project
Tomorrow at 8pm, Dark Matter events continue at Machine Project with nine perspectives on the theme by artists and researchers. This is the second event in the Dark Matter series, curated by myself, Christopher O’Leary, and Michael Kontopoulos.
Friday, November 2nd
8pm
FREE
Our exploration of Dark Matter will continue this week, with nine artists, researchers, writers and ethnographers approaching the theme of dark matter in nine eclectic, short-form talks.
Modeled after the Pecha Kucha presentation style, each presenter will show 20 slides for 20 seconds each, totaling six minutes. The slides progress on a timer, forcing each speaker to keep up!
Featuring:
Zach Blas
Jeff Cain
Amisha Gadani
Christopher Kardambikis
Michael Kontopoulos
Chandler McWilliams
Lily Nguyen
Christopher O’Leary
Pinar Yoldas
This is the second in a series of events organized by SPECULATIVE that investigate Dark Matter from scientific, artistic, social and subversive dimensions.
