Emerge 2013: The Future of Truth

Join us for truth elixirs, laser-cut rock art, flash mobs, food trucks, vast crowds of masked faces, Native American rock music, cyborgs and 3D printers.

Emerge unites artists, engineers, scientists, storytellers and designers to build, draw, write and rethink the future of the human species and the environments that we share.

This year, Emerge tackles The Future of Truth and explores the conflicting stories we tell about reality, justice, reason, facts and values.
