Festival Henge @ MIT Media Lab 2025 Community participation installation and performances @ MIT Media Lab August 20 - October 17 2025. Featuring 8 two-sided hand-made LED panels displaying video content front and back 24/7 and a 16 channel sound system (hexadecaphonic). The video content evolved over time as submissions from the community came in from an open call. The Loop started at 30 minutes and after 8 weeks evolved to almost 2 hours long. Every Friday evening the space was activated by performances by community audio and video artists, DJs and VJs in what were called "Friday Night Jam Sessions". Artists involved include: Lucie McCormick, Jonathan Williams, Supreetha Krishnan, Lucy McCabe, Nelly Kate, Keke Chen, Daniel Keating, Jonathan Nelson, Chelsea Ward and of course screaMachine, and DJs G-man, PAg, J-Dub, DJames, Lapis. Video features the tracks "Nothing" and "303 Soul" by G-man. Special thanks to all who participated including the un-named performers on the Big Knob 303, and thanks to Justin Looper for all the help programming the screens.
