Composting Computers
By planting ideas in the rich soil of creative possibilities, artists are infusing new energy into a hopeful future - one where we have the power to divert the course of our technologies. They are imagining the foundations for a world where there are no such things as scraps or trash, but only creative solutions.
This summer, get ready to enrich the humus layer of your imagination. Discover the possibilities for a future where human, nature and machines can co-exist. The Composting Computers exhibition will showcase artistic explorations born amongst the opportunities posed by e-waste repurposing and creative thinking.
Visit @hofvancartesius - the circular workspace of Utrecht - between June 15 and 29 and find out how artists envision our future. Workshops will be held weekly, keep an eye out for our programme coming soon! Please note that in order to join the exhibition opening on June 15 you will need a ticket for Hof der Zotheid.
