Hito Steyerl Exhibit: NW Noggin Workshop on Neural Networks!

February 15, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

WHAT: NW Noggin Workshop on Neural Networks at Hito Steyerl Exhibit

We did it!

LEARN MORE: WE ARE ALL NEURAL NETWORKS

“Thank you all for the wonderful workshop (and fantastic photos)! I really appreciated how each of you connected the exhibition with neuroscience and how clearly and helpfully you explain these complex systems. People clearly loved the brains and the hands-on neuron building. Thanks and hope to see you all soon!”
— Hana Layson, Head of Youth and Educator Programs, Portland Art Museum

WHERE: Portland Art Museum, 1219 SW Park Ave, Portland, OR 97205

WHEN: Wednesday, February 15, 6:45pm – 7:30pm

Come check out some real neural networks, and reflect on the biological wiring that makes you who you are!

We’ll craft neurons from pipe cleaners, and synapse to form neural networks that detect, process and act in response to our environments, growing and changing connections to better predict consequences in a rapidly changing world. Join us, make art, ask questions and adjust your own network!
