Interface

Interface is a monthly series at EMPAC that brings artists, engineers, scientists, and designers together to talk about how they actually make and think. Rather than presenting finished work, the series focuses on what happens along the way—experiments, questions, failures, intuitions, and discoveries that change the direction of a project.  

The premise is simple: researchers talk about their creative process, and artists talk about their research. What happens when we look across disciplines at the different ways people approach a problem, test an idea, or follow something they don’t yet understand?

Interface takes place on the second Thursday of the month. The evening may include performances, demonstrations, sketches, prototypes, code, sound tests, or other materials drawn from participants’ work. Every talk is followed by food and drink at Evelyn’s Café, with time to keep the conversation going.

Interface aims to become a regular place for people to meet one another, share ideas, and build a culture of curiosity across disciplines. All are welcome.
