A series of talks and panels that focus on the use of movement and tangible mechanical systems in a digital world.

Presenters both engineers and artists will be asked to answer what is it that resists the digitization of everything? Why at this point are we not just simulating everything? The series was initiatlly conceived as an addendum to an undergraduate engineering curicullum where students are still taught basic mechanical principles alongside advanced software and computer numerically controlled processes. The speakers themselves represent disciplines ranging from performance art, industrial design, gaming, mechanical sculpture, to graphic design.
