Patterns
in our life and in our work often develop and repeat in
a regular manner, and then something unexpected happens.
Something shifts slightly and the pattern and rhythm become
radically new. It is in those moments of unexpected change
that great possibility exists. We shift. We transform. We
go off the grid aesthetically, conceptually, or environmentally.
In this conference we will concentrate on how we can seek
those points of departure and together, go off the grid.
