Event Details

Join us on Saturday, Oct. 8 at 7:00pm for a pre-show conversation with David Kaiser, Katrina LaCurts, and Kelcey Gibbons.

In 1843, Ada Lovelace completed her notes on Charles Babbage’s design for the Analytical Engine, articulating its capacity to weave algebraic patterns, and envisioning how it might one day be used to create music and images. In 2022, we live enmeshed in a culture of computing and digital technology, with compounding possibilities and confounding questions. 

Can we take an historical view that empowers us to shape the evolution of a computer culture infused with our humanity?
