Hacking Arts 2018 will mark the sixth annual conference and festival will be held at the MIT Media Lab, fostering community and celebrating innovation in the creative industries: Design, Fashion, Film/Video, Gaming, Music, Performing Arts, Virtual/Augmented Reality, and Visual Arts.


In the spirit of this year’s theme of co-creation, all Hacking Arts attendees will have the opportunity to ‘hack’ together. We’ve shaken up our schedule and created more opportunities for the cross-pollination of ideas and skills than ever before.
