2026–27 Program Focus

The 2026–27 season places particular emphasis on immersive practices and critical thinking around technologies that question the dominant AI paradigms and the material, environmental, and political infrastructures behind them. Alongside spatial computing, XR, AI, and other emergent media, the program invites approaches to slow and tactical technologies, non-extractive platforms, affective design, techno-spirituality, and technologies oriented toward pausing and healing.
