TECHNĒ Art X Tech Summit: ART IN THE AGE OF ROBOTS
TECHNĒ 3.0: Art in the Age of Robots
As robots move from sealed factories into homes, streets, and public space, TECHNĒ 3.0 asks not whether they will shape culture — but how deeply they will transform creativity, authorship, and making itself.
Join us at mHUB Chicago, the city's leading hard-tech innovation and manufacturing hub, for a half-day symposium, exhibition, and cocktail reception exploring the evolving relationship between humans and machines.
SYMPOSIUM · 1:00 – 5:00 PM Across keynotes, artist talks, and live demos — surrounded by mHUB's working prototyping labs — leading voices in art, robotics, and engineering examine what it means to create alongside machines.
Featuring:
Ken Goldberg — Artist, Roboticist, William S. Floyd Jr. Distinguished Chair in Engineering, UC Berkeley
Elizabeth Molina — Director, Commissions at Monumental Labs
Sebastian Marino — CTO, Monumental Labs
Lerrel Pinto — Roboticist, Co-Founder of ARI
Alexander Reben — Founder & Chief Executive Artist, phyzify
COCKTAIL + NETWORKING · 5:00 – 7:00 PM Continue the conversation over drinks and explore the exhibition in an intimate setting with speakers, artists, and fellow attendees.
