Subtitled “An Un-Conference on Open Source A.I., Art, and Performance,” this “not a show” gathers speakers, artists, and technologists to explore the intersection of code and creativity. Over four evenings, see “sandbox performances” – inspired by the upcoming Sapien Ceremonies theatrical cyberdrama Syntax Error: The Quickening of A.I. – which will allow audiences to write simple programs to be performed by the cast, as well as demos, video art, outdoor installations, and games like Go, an ancient Chinese game that’s been played for over 2,500 years. Jump in the sandbox and look to the past as we consider the possibilities tech offers us for the future. – Kat McNevins
