Synch.Live is a joyful, participatory community art experience and cutting edge brain science experiment, designed to spark emergent behavior and fortify human connection. Players are assembled into groups wearing hats equipped with randomly flashing LEDs. The group’s challenge is to synchronise the LEDs without talking or touching. The LEDs will synchronise if the group can figure out how to move together in a coherent, emergent fashion.Emergence is incredibly broad in scope, capturing the creation of galaxies, intelligent behavior in ants, economics, ecosystems, and conscious brains. Recent advances in information theory have allowed three of Synch.Live’s collaborating scientists, with colleagues, to develop an algorithm to quantify emergence. In Synch.Live, we use the algorithm to measure how emergent the group as a whole becomes. While the algorithm is tested, our application—measuring emergent behavior among humans—is radically new. This event is part of the Great Exhibition Road Festival: Trailblazers.Please arrive 10 minutes before the event begins. If you arrive after this time, your ticket may be reallocated.<h2>Great Exhibition Road Festival: Trailblazers</h2>18-19 June 2022Join us in South Kensington this summer to enjoy a weekend of free events for all ages and celebrate trailblazing ideas in science and the arts.
