"Making is often seen as an individual pursuit, expressive of one person’s unique vision. But some of the most inspiring forms of making are actually collective undertakings.

This year, we’ll reflect on these group dynamics. How do people work together, with a common sense of purpose, to achieve great things? How is individual authorship shaped and extended in the process? What is the impact of new technologies on shared work? To explore these questions, we’ll be looking for the first time in the series at performance disciplines, like dance and music, which are among the most sophisticated forms of collaborative artistry. Craft workshops, too, have their own choreography.

Join us for a rich conversation about the possibilities of conversation itself."
