Other highlights include checking out the Robot Wonderland, viewing a project investigating how we can turn social networking tweets into poetry, or you could see if it is possible to ‘soundproof’ the city and get massaged by a bass line.  Radically further, view the ‘sleepwalking dance’ as well as attending a creative project presentation discussing the ability of human flight.
