We do what we think we have to. We do what we can.

The condition of the kinetic, electronic and interactive new media works crafted by the students of RTA321: Intro to Tangible Media take shape within this situation of effort and uncertainty. These pieces exhaust themselves—moving towards mess and impermanence, aching to find a foothold. Despite their inherent instability, the works create points of contact and emotional engagement with their audience as they explore themes of miscommunication, the redundancy of mechanical processes, and the loneliness of the loveless and forlorn.

Returning for its second year, WEAVED/WIRED is an annual new media exhibition celebrating tangible art, interactivity, and community.

The New Media community welcomes all at the opening reception for WEAVED/WIRED: TOWARDS, DESPITE on **Wednesday, February 7th from 4 pm to 6 pm at The Creative School’s Assembly Gallery (122 Bond St.)

Exhibition runs from Tuesday, February 6th to Thursday, February 15th.
