This public event is about materialising conversations and visualising the links connecting the different thesis topics, which are currently being explored by the MAD participants. To kick it all off, a relational system has been devised, triggering the emergence of a wide array of different materials. Based on such ongoing set of collective explorations, MAD would now like to take the opportunity for sharing, reflecting and performing for you.
The medium is meaningful as the carrier of the message, its narrative and its function. Moreover, the making process by nature offers surprising, irrational, coincidental possibilities that the mind simply cannot predict or imagine. Experiment and the use of unexpected opportunities that failure can generate are at the basis of the MAD programme.
This public event is the result of a collaboration with and is moderated by: Ronald van Tienhoven.
