Tech News: New Framework Laptop

We go through a lot of equipment in our practices and industry. I think most of us try to hold onto our gear as long as possible because it becomes such an important part of our workflow. We’re excited to upgrade, but there is integration time, environmental costs, and actual costs to upgrading equipment. The choice to upgrade should be ours, and how we upgrade should also be up to us.

Brady Allard-The Five Drones

The Five Drones is presented by Cluster Festival and Video Pool Media Arts Centre.
The Five Drones is an exploration of the concept of drones in modern society. The installation is inspired by the term drone–a continuous, low-pitched sound, and the various connotations of the word in popular culture. As I reflect on the world we live in, I am struck by the increasing reliance on AI, technology, and the potential consequences this may have for humanity.
