Torque - Twisting Language, Brain, Technology

The culmination of a research project by artists Sam Skinner and Nathan Jones exploring the resonances and replications of language, brain and technology as systems. Featuring new commissions from a cohort of artists in performance and new media, exploring these themes for a live audience.

Torque investigates how language, technology and cognition are twisting together in new and evermore complex forms. In particular, we are interested in the opportunities and challenges these forces of entanglement present, and how artists, theorists and scientists are navigating and resisting this hybrid system of brain, machine and culture.
