The folding space studio is convened by Luke Bergmann yet brings together a larger collaboration of likeminded people, at UBC and well beyond it. Students and collaborators often work on topics not directly related to one another’s, but remain in vigorous intellectual conversation. Their work spans cultural critique and technically creative, generative work, theoretical and empirical, qualitative and ethnographic as well as computational. Anyone interested in speaking, studying, and/or collaborating with us, please reach out.
