HIGHLIGHTS of UnBox 2013

Workshops
In 2013, workshops form a core part of UnBox allowing participants to engage deeply with an international group of exemplary practitioners and studios in a true ‘Hand On, Minds On’ fashion, ranging from skill building around cognition to creating products using technology tools, with craftspeople.

Seminars
Eminent scholars, thinkers, and doers present their work while challenging attendees to question and rethink conventions on topics like education, manufacturing, anthropological inquiry, design, music, and traditional worldviews. Seminars are conversational, and audience participation is encouraged.

Labs

Food Lab
An explosion of gastronomical delights, Food Lab is the umbrella title for all things food and beverage at this year’s festival and builds of the success and popularity of last year’s Food Lab. New and different preparations and ingredients explore pairings that promise to be as serendipitous as they are delicious. 
These culinary efforts culminate in a festival-ending feast to close this year’s UnBox on a high, and tasty, note.

Elements created in the labs add to the festival flavor, with tangible outputs shared, sold, or even eaten.
