The Movement Lab presents: the Artificial environments / environmental Intelligence Festival
The Ae/eI Festival features work-in-progress installations and performances in the Movement Lab every day during the week of February 21-28, all of which are free and open to the public. It is guided by the question, what happens when we close the loop on the constructed binary of nature and technology?
Artificial environments / environmental Intelligence Festival Night 2:
Tricoteuse
Created by Celia Krefter

Doors open at 7:00 PM and showing begins at 7:30 PM
Capacity in the lab is capped at 40 audience members. Attendees who have RSVP'd before the event will have priority, and admission will be determined on a first come first serve basis on arrival. If you RSVP before the event but you arrive late, we reserve the right to give your spot to someone on the waitlist.
