FORMS is a 3-day festival of emergent culture that celebrates artists and thinkers who take risks and challenge convention through experimentation. Aiming to connect with people who are interested in contemplating what is possible, FORMS examines the convergence of creativity and technology and its influence on everything from digital life, human connection, urbanism, artistic expression and beyond.

Entry: All Access Pass or FORMS Summit Pass


FORMS Summit invites community leaders, professionals and artists from Toronto, Amsterdam and New York City in fields spanning architecture, urban design, technology and new media art to discuss their experience working beyond traditional boundaries to explore new ideas and solve complex issues.


With a focus on design, civic participation and policy, FORMS Summit, welcomes conversations around accessibility to space and displacement, the impact of convergence on the future of work and creativity, the shifting role of public art and public space as well as an introduction to human experience design and biomimicry. Aiming to unpack a common language around sustainable thinking and practice, the summit explores what this all means in an urban context and why we need more of it.


Participants will include: Karen Wong (New Museum, NYC), Alex Josephson (Partisans), Ilana Altman (The Artful City), Shawn Micallef (Spacing Magazine), Klasien van de Zandschulp (Lava Lab, Amsterdam), Dr. Irwin Adam (Future Food Studio), Adil Dhalla (Centre for Social Innovation), Howard Tam (Think Fresh Group), Alexis Kane Speer (The STEPS Initiative), Brandon Vickerd (York University), Jamie Miller (Biomimicry Frontier), Nils van Beek (TAAK Amsterdam), Michelle Senayah (The Laneway Project), Jordan Mandel (University of Waterloo), Markus Heckmann (Derivative), Kate Hartman (OCADU), Leonieke Verhoog (VPRO Medialab, Amsterdam) and more.
