After Dark: Tangible

Experience this July at the MIT Museum for an exploration of the dynamic intersection between the digital and physical worlds. Discover the pioneering work of MIT Professor Hiroshi Ishii, whose research with the Tangible Media Group at the MIT Media Lab has transformed how we interact with technology. Experience live demonstrations of three of Ishii's iconic projects — Sandscape, inFORM, and TRANSFORM — on view in the galleries.

Next, head to the Learning Labs for some hands-on play. Design and code a musical instrument or explore a modular toolkit with flexible mesh structures for interactive, expressive, and collaborative creations. Then, swing by the Maker Hub to unwind and relieve stress by crafting a DIY stress ball. Enjoy Japanese cafe-style snacks and drinks available for purchase from Pagu.
