Ken Goldberg on Secrets and Passwords at Headlands

Ken Goldberg led a participatory Fieldwork Session on Secrets and Passwords at the Headlands Center for the Arts on the evening of July 14th. Ken guided the group through an intriguing investigation of privacy and secrets, while helping participants decipher the clues that everyday physical totems may provide in our individual and collective memories. With wine and mess hall made breads and spreads, the Headlands provided a fun and community-oriented environment with which to explore access, security, and the stories of our connections.

Headlands Center for the Arts is a multidisciplinary, international arts center dedicated to supporting artists; the creative process; and the development of new, innovative ideas and artwork. Fieldwork Sessions provide an intimate and casual space for collective experimentation and conversation that is as much insightful as it is playful.
