Transforming Data into Art: The Kinetic Creations of BREAKFAST

How do you turn data — something invisible and abstract — into art that you can feel, see, and touch? 

For most, it's a mystery. But for BREAKFAST, it's the foundation of their work.

In collaboration with the National Arts Club and its Art and Technology Committee, this unique lecture by kinetic artist BREAKFAST will showcase the seamless integration of technology and creativity, pushing the boundaries of contemporary art.

For over a decade, BREAKFAST has been redefining public art by creating large-scale, interactive sculptures that use data to come to life. Their work has been exhibited at prestigious venues and institutions, including the Venice Biennale, Rockefeller Center, Harvard University, and has been auctioned at Christie's.
