7 April 2022 — STRP and co-creator Ayoung Kim invite artist duo Cream on Chrome, artist and writer James Bridle, media artist Sarah Grant, and artist Soyo Lee to explore how to integrate the datasphere into the natural world. We will discuss the extent to which the digital and natural worlds can merge and whether we can strengthen the current biosphere. STRP Scenario #16 will not only take place live in Eindhoven, but also in an underwater world designed by Ayoung in VRChat. So, you can participate in the metaverse as well!
