Transforming Boston: Art and Technology Incubator

A workshop series conducted by Michael Lewy

Transforming Boston: Art and Technology Incubator is our public-facing artist training and mentorship initiative, which offers access to new media technology for artists to either translate previous work or create new work. The incubator serves practicing artists who have faced obstacles due to the high start-up costs of these design tools and the cultural barriers within the new media art field. Ten artists from the Boston area have been invited to participate in this year’s program focused on Augmented Reality and develop their skills while designing a project.

This weekly confluence of ideas & creative exploration features guest lectures by Nicolas Robbe, Lauren Moffett, and Liz Nofziger. The goal of the 2024 incubator is to offer training opportunities and access to technology for artists to either translate previous work or create new work in the medium of augmented reality (AR). The program provides assistance with the production process, technology exploration and mentorship. 

The 2025 cohort will focus on projection mapping.
