No more is this evident than in the complex web of interactions that make the meta-social systems of the internet. But how, at an individual level, can we make sense of the larger social organism that we are a part of and the amorphous space it occupies?<\/p>\n\n\n\n[<strong><em>Reticulations<\/em><\/strong>] is a night of Audio-visual performance that uses real-time social-media data to express this abstract form through video game engines, generative sonic structures and human-computer interaction.
