Merging physical and digital art to create a revolution! Hyper Island will become KONST:IG (a play on the Swedish “Konst”: Art and “Konstig”: Weird). The theme of the event is “Revolution”. Manchester was the heart of the industrial revolution, Hyper Island is leading the change for an educational revolution and today we are in the midst of a digital revolution.
