Hacking Arts ignites entrepreneurship and innovation within the creative arts. We bring together creative technologists, artists, innovators and hackers at MIT to explore the future of the arts at our annual Conference, Tech Expo and Hackathon.
Hacking Arts 2016 marked the fourth annual festival 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.
Hacking Arts is organized by the MIT Sloan School of Management Entertainment, Media & Sports Club in partnership with MIT's Center for Art, Science, and Technology and the Martin Trust Center for MIT Entrepreneurship.
