Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Please join me for a weekend (or part of one) of Experiments in
Art and Technology (E.A.T.), founded in 1966 by engineers Billy
Klüver and Fred Waldhauer, and artists Robert Rauschenberg and
Robert Whitman, to provide artists with access to new technology
and to promote collaborations between artists and engineers.
I've attached a poster and press release in pdf format for
further information.
All events take place at Stevens Institute of Technology, Babbio
Center (River & 6th Streets) in Hoboken, NJ and are free and open
to the public. Sponsored by Harvestworks Digital Media Arts Center
