Turbulence: Metal, Flows in Thinking and Things was a symposium that took place on 17th January 2024 at the Royal College of Art. It explored the often overlooked world of metal art and design.
With a growing interest in materiality and sensory engagement, alongside the immersive realm of virtual reality and artificial intelligence, this symposium contemplated the future meaning of metal as a foundation for artistic and design practices.
Esteemed speakers from various disciplines, including artists, academics, philosophers, anthropologists, poets, and material scientists, will come together to examine the question: what does it mean to 'make' in metal?
Featured speakers: Jonathan Boyd, Emefa Cole, Professor Johnny Golding, Dr Zoe Laughlin, Sally Li, Dr Pravu Mazumdar, Martina Margetts, Dr Peter Oakley, Mah Rana, Max Warren, Adi Toch, Bine Roth, and Professor Michael Rowe.
