Professor Washko lectures and exhibits work May 5 at the Gray Area Festival in San Francisco, CA, which surveys culture through the lens of art and technology with a conference, performances, workshops, and exhibition.
From the festival website “Now in its third edition, the Gray Area Festival still believes that artists are bellwethers to anticipate cultural traumas, and that integrated creative and technical practice holds a lantern illuminating paths to broader and deeper understanding of the trials and opportunities ahead. We present a group of speakers, performers, educators, and exhibitors exploring the edges of media, time, culture, design, and the environment. Held at our Grand Theater in San Francisco’s Mission district, the Festival highlights Gray Area’s continued pursuit of forward-looking art and technology applied toward civic, educational, entrepreneurial, aesthetic, and social practice.”
