Artists explore contemporary practices that ask questions about the self as a place where nature and culture meet and where the political becomes personal.

"Play Spaces" is a showcase of strange, personal, challenging videogames from Professor Paolo Pedercini's Experimental Game Design class.

Students present true and truthy stories using experimental approaches to documentary video, animation, audio, and theater.

"Xoromancy" allows the exploration of a near-infinite space of pseudo-real images generated by a neural network trained on millions of photographs.

"Just Don't Smile" features eight games and the animation "Wario World War III," all collaboratively made and involving Peter Sheehan BFA '20.

Engage with bioplastics, teapot-puppy-candle creatures made by a neural network, cereal (painted, not real), fruit (real, for consumption), and more!

"No Boys Allowed" acts as an archive of intimate moments of self actualization and an exploration in experiences with feminine communal care.

Through closed circuit interactivity, "Eye in Dissonance" examine ideas around the desire for illusion, pattern recognition, and chaos.
