MAX has partnered with the renowned Youth Speaks to bring together hundreds of students at the nexus of space science and poetry. Young poets meet with scientist mentors before the slam and are given feedback by our esteemed judge’s panel. Come enjoy and support new voices in poetry and space science!
Watch these celestial looks come to life with augmented reality. Artist Andrea Lauer and Astrophysicist Janna Levin use fashion as a medium to communicate the story of the universe, and the mysteries of Spacetime.
Find out at Mapping Microbes: The Search for E.T. where MAX is getting microbial! Ask our partner Cal Academy scientists about the microbes all around (and inside) us and perhaps some ‘alien’ microbes we have here on earth! The search for extraterrestrial life — and perhaps the origins of life — begins not outward, but inward.
She demonstrates how her AR and VR creations allow scientists in collaboration with their robots to explore the unknown! Learn about the tech used to discover new worlds and propel humanity into the very outer-reaches of everything we’ve ever known. This presentation will be accompanied by Pas de Deux – a dancer interacts with a robot and the two together create the work. We invite the audience to imagine the ways technology reflects our humanity and interrogates it.
