The students of the IDeATe classes Inflatables and Soft Sculpture, Kinetic Fabrics, and Exploded Ensemble will present Pushing Air, an evening of music, soft-sculpture, and textile robotics. In Kresge Hall, the musicians of Exploded Ensemble will be joined onstage by robotic performative sculptures designed by the students of Kinetic Fabrics to explore concepts of oscillation, polyrhythm, and complex pattern-making. Later, in Alumni Concert Hall, the musicians of Exploded Ensemble will be surrounded by architectural scale artworks designed by the students of Inflatables and Soft Sculpture to create an immersive space for the audience to explore and interact with. This event is free and open to the public.
