Subtle Technologies Festival

Subtle Technologies Festival

Subtle Technologies FestivalEstablished in 1998, is a registered not-for-profit arts organization dedicated to blurring the boundaries between art and science.

Subtle Technologies’ mandate is to build bridges between the arts and sciences. It brings together people and ideas normally confined to separate realms and disciplines, connecting them - and their audiences - to one another.

Every May in Toronto, the Subtle Technologies festival takes place, a multidisciplinary event where artists and scientists come together to discuss, demonstrate and exhibit their work. Subtle Technologies challenges specialists, including physicists, geneticists, engineers, mathematicians, astronomers, film-makers, architects, dancers, painters and musicians to contemplate the ways art and science act upon one another and reshape our perspectives.

In 2007 the festival theme is [in situ] art body medicine, in 2006 it was responsive architectures and in 2005, physics in honor of 'World Year of Physics.'
