In 2002 SFAI will publish a four-color volume compiling the lectures and presentations with additional essays and works. 450 local and international students come to learn robot building and to compete in the International BEAM Robotic Games. Ages competing range from 6 to 20 years. Los Alamos National Laboratory will provide robotists as well as instructors and mentors. The event is held at the Santa Fe Art Institute.
Registration is required.
D2A takes its name from the work and book of the same name by Santa Fe artist Dennis Dollens, who is also professor of digital architecture at the International University in Barcelona, Spain. Architecture conceived, developed, and constructed with the computer as partner is resulting in the most original and controversial work in decades. Some observers speak of a paradigm shift in architecture as the result of digital input. Spaces limited, reservations required. Call SFAI at 424-5050.
