The arts at MIT connect creative minds across disciplines and encourage a lifetime of exploration and self-discovery. They are rooted in experimentation, risk-taking and imaginative problem-solving. The arts strengthen MIT's commitment to the aesthetic, human, and social dimensions of research and innovation. Artistic knowledge and creation exemplify our motto - mens et manus, mind and hand. The arts are essential to MIT's mission to build a better society and meet the challenges of the 21st century. arts.mit.edu
An Immersive Multimedia Experience of the Haudenosaunee Creation Story by Jackson 2bears
Ne:Kahwistará:ken Kanónhsa’kówa í:se Onkwehonwe is a vivid, 360 degree immersive retelling of the Haudenosaunee creation story by multimedia artist and 2022-24 Ida Ely Rubin Artist in Residence at the MIT Center for Art, Science & Technology Jackson 2bears, also known as Tékeniyáhsen Ohkwá:ri (Kanien’kehà:ka).
2bears was first inspired to create a VR version of a longhouse, a traditional Haudenosaunee structure and important spiritual and cultural center where creation myths are shared. The longhouse in the community unexpectedly burned down midway through the process, after the team had created 3D scans of the structure. With no building to project onto, they used ingenuity and creativity to pivot to the project’s current iteration: 8-foot tall images played on a canvas screen 34-feet in diameter. With video mapping using multiple projectors and 14-channel surround sound, the story of Sky Woman coming down to Turtle Island was given an immense form.
At MIT, 2bears discovered a rich community and a place to explore larger philosophical questions relating to technology, Indigenous knowledge, and artificial intelligence.
Supported with a grant from the MIT Center for Art, Science & Technology and hosted by the Co-Creation Studio and MIT Open Documentary Lab.

this is what is missed in the newer fridays
What did you expect . And what is it good for ? Got a summer for me ?
👍🌞
To the conductor, and the young men and women who performed this. THANK YOU SO MUCH, THIS PUT A HUGE SMILE ON MY FACE! To @harrymanfredini1979, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WRITING THIS AWESOME MUSIC!! I love listening to your music when I work on my portraits( graphite and charcoal). Your portrait will be the first in a series of my favorite composers.
This my JAM🕺🏿🕺🏿🕺🏿
Lol, it’s the process that counts 👍
This. was. BADASS. Thank you for showing us this!
So who’s making the sound in the background?
Why the episode was named as the land of good intentions?
Excellent Art and Science marriage
Great...i really loved this... information n true facts in such a way never thought
Please make more of these
This is so good..so beautifully presented and explained❤
this is to heavy. to much science for us. Proton changes its weight and size depending on sub-particles it has at the moment. as much as I know there are up,down,bottom,top,strange and charm quarks in it...then anti particles also form antiup,antidown,etc... and when proton gets charm quark it grows larger and heavier. also it gets more energy. so in order to preserve the equilibrium and energy preservation it is only reasonable to assume neutron also follows the same path. and there are leptons like electrons,neutrinos positrons tau neutrinos and all their anti particle counterparts. it is a mess.... physicists dont understand this mess perfectly so how in the world would ordinary human understand them? and this is on femtometer and atometer scale(fm and am....fm= 10 to -16 power and at= 10 to -19 power meters)
খুব কঠিন নির্মম সত্যকে কথা ও রেখার আশ্চর্য যুগলবন্দিতে তুলে ধরার জন্য অনেক ধন্যবাদ জানাই। সম্পাদনা খুব সজীব তাই অন্যান্য প্রতিবেদনের তুলনায় এটি অন্য ভাবনার খোরাক জোগালো। যতদিন যাবে সমস্যা ততই গহীন হবে। মহানগরীগুলো এভাবেই হয়তো হারিয়ে যাবে একদিন। আমরা কি একটু সচেতন হবো?
scientists are so much more gentle than musicians lol love how they let the piano play too when my first thought was prepared piano, gotta put a digital nail in it
Its really awesome to see a man of African decent doing so much awesome work in the design of the architecture of so many Museums, just knowing what museums were and how they are transforming and how black people are a major part of their transformation
would love to see more videos like this
Thank you. Looking forward to watching part II
Through the convergence of art and technology, new inventions are being created. It's remarkable
Prof Banerjee should write his memoir!!!
My father studied with Joseph Pilates to get the best he could. This is amazing! Music has entered a whole different world. I hope none of you forget posture and strength and core! Such amazing music you are playing. John Buttrick , Professor of Music at MIT , 1966-1985.
Now were talking, love it
Bro goes to MIT and can play Rach 3 im done ☠️☠️☠️
they are built different
More than likely you need to play the piano or violin like that to get accepted into mit
Way too fire.
Thanks for posting this. Very informative.
Such a cool series!! I learned a lot and love the storytelling style
Why aren't these 2 episodes opening???
I can open both of them.
Very interesting. Thank you for this! As a student of economics, one wonders whether these general equilibrium effects could ever be estimated? Esp considering most agri models are not dynamic?
Much needed video. ❤
Beautifully illustrated and explained ❤ More of this please 🙏🏽
GREATE LEARNING FROM THIS VIDEO
I am so glad Kolkata’s art is spreading. It is such a microcosm of all kinds of artists and probably the most densely populated place on earth with artists. Thank you MIT and both collaborators Mr. Banerjee
7:09 PART 5 JASON!!!!
Amazing. Very helpful in expanding my understanding of the future of AI as an artist.
Well done. Simplified but not dumbed down.
I was craving the sounds of good classic horror, so of course I turned on a early Jason Film (Friday The 13), but then I said wait hopefully the soundtrack was here, THANK YOU, excellent 😁😁😁
You had me interested until you used the near meaningless buzzwords and admitted to applying racist standards to your methods.
Ki ki ki ma ah ah ah
The orchestra version of Fly away tiny sparrow at the end of the movie always reminds me of imagine by John Lennon musically.
This has always been my favorite movie score. I have listen to this soundtrack chance I get ever since the movie first came out and I saw it years ago. I think of this music as beautiful, not terrifying. Thank you all.
This is a great way to attract young people to orchestra concerts! Bravo!
great to see this, so much respect! We just interviewed Harry Manfredini now live on our channel
Evan and the MIT yous lot are epic cool 😎👍♥️✊🏾🎉😂
Very cool indeed.
9:00 Always my favorite of the magnificent 13th scores, largely because of its marked juxtaposition to the horror. Sail away, tiny sparrow. Bravo to the orchestra for an excellent performance.
This fantastic!! Bravo!
