Real / Virtual

In an era where technology is fully assimilated into society, augmented and virtual reality have shifted notions of what constitutes the ‘real world’. Is reality distinct from this rapidly emerging virtual landscape? Will technology improve our future, making it efficient, sustainable and happy or could it be our downfall?

REAL/ VIRTUAL is the launch of a 5 month programme of events which explore the boundaries of reality and virtuality. This festival will take place in our 47/49 Tanner Street building and features exhibitions, installation, performance and workshops.
