PULSE Art + Technology Festival 2020 @ Telfair Museums’ Jepson Center
Telfair Museums continues to lead the conversation in art and technology with its 13th installment of the PULSE Art + Technology Festival.
The 2020 festival will take place from January 23-26 at Telfair’s Jepson Center.
PULSE 2020 showcases artists and creatives who demonstrate how technology can either work against us or help us solve global problems.
The multi-day event invites individuals of all ages to enjoy exciting exhibitions, screenings, lectures, workshops, and educational events. The exhibition Machines of Futility features interactive works that question technology’s usefulness, while installations in the museum’s TechSpace titled Second Nature connect virtual and augmented reality, and games with the natural world.
