We\u2019re constantly fusing art, technology and science to address crucial issues like climate change, pollution exposure, emotional health, and so many other challenges facing society.<\/p>\n<p>It is at the intersection of creativity and tech innovation where we create experiences inspiring people to cross boundaries, work together, transcend their traditional roles, and explore new possibilities. And maybe, just maybe, in this fusion of art and science there will be a spark that leads someone, somewhere to create something wholly new and profoundly meaningful to all our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Look around and explore our many projects, groups and supporting research. We hope you find inspiration here to take on your own creative journey.<\/p>\n<h3>Featured groups<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ms-grid \">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ms-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div
