Things are about to get explosive at USC! https://lnkd.in/gFNfnpAv

PST ART will kick off with a *BANG* on September 15 at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Getty commissioned artist Cai Guo-Qiang to produce an epic daytime fireworks piece to kick off PST ART: Art & Science Collide, in collaboration with the University of Southern California (USC Pacific Asia Museum). Titled “WE ARE: Explosion Event for PST ART,” the daytime fireworks were conceived and choreographed by Cai and his multimodal custom artificial intelligence, cAI™ (pronounced AI Cai). Engaging over one thousand aerial drones along with choreographed fireworks throughout the seating bowl, tthe piece will transform the Coliseum into a grand explosive matrix of animated fireworks—revealing AI’s “heavenly secret” in the process. WE ARE is a free, ticketed event available for booking later this summer. Join the mailing list to get notified: pst.art/newsletter
