Our NEW INC member cohort consists of 5 unique Tracks or focus areas guided by a Mentor-in-Residence: Art & Code, Cooperative Studies, Creative Science, Social Architecture, and XR (Extended Realities). At the core of DEMO, members share their individual projects during Track Talks which are followed by a group conversation moderated by the Track Mentor-in-Residence.

In partnership with the EY Metaverse Lab and Onassis ONX, Extended Realities supports artists and technologists who blur the boundaries between the physical and digital worlds. These speakers are forging new audience relationships through emerging storytelling methods, including AI, motion capture, mixed reality, and more. Following presentations by Leah Smithson, Luca Lee, Mischa Kuma, MYStudio, and Nat Decker, the Track’s Mentor-in-Residence Danielle McPhatter will moderate a group discussion.
