PERIMETERS, BOUNDARIES AND BORDERS SYMPOSIUM
The f.city exhibition presented by Fast-uk and folly, Perimeters,
Boundaries and Borders presents practitioners that blur the conventional
boundaries of sculpture, industrial design and architecture through the
use of digital technology. The exhibition asks the question “What new
types of objects and environments are being created by art and design
professionals through the use of computer-aided design, data processing
and manufacturing technologies?”
The Symposium, the afternoon of the private view, is an opportunity to
hear those practitioners talk about their work and discuss how digital
technologies have enabled a convergence of disciplines, creative
practice and production techniques.
The symposium is free, but booking is essential.
