Description
This program can be a performance, workshop or residency depending on the need. In this program Balam explores the skills necessary for youth in today's society to develop the ability to explore the fusion of visual art and technology and how students can utilize this format as a source of expression, creation, and problem solving. Students explore coding, the binary system, and critical thinking as it relates to a topic being covered in class.
