About this project
Re Evolution is a collective of professional engineers, scientists, artists, developers and designers working to broaden our community’s engagement with the social challenges affecting our future. We aim to ignite the imagination with outrageous feats of concrete and virtual engineering.
We are working to create a large scale industrial art, science and technology festival located in the heart of creative Los Angeles – a futuristic ode to the World’s Fairs of yesteryear. For one weekend in the spring of 2011, we will present a multi-dimensional intelligent playground, an ideal stage for spontaneous learning and collaboration.
Our mission is to inspire future Los Angeles through a spectacular convergence of technology, culture, science and art.
The Re Evolution festival aims to introduce lesser-known industrial artists – unsung innovators in their field - to the public. Their installations are often so grand in scale or so complex, they cannot access venues in which to share their creations. In fact, it would be more likely to find them hidden away inside vast storage units or warehouses. We think it's a shame that such stunning art has been condemned to solitary confinement. Your donation will help us share these amazing pieces and bring them out from the underground.
Your generous contributions will go towards helping us secure a creative space to hold our weekend-long event and to fund artist's exhibitions. Re Evolution is scheduled for June 10-12, 2011.
Re Evolution Inc. is a non-profit corporation registered in the state of California. We are positioned to obtain federal 501c3 status so we can better serve the public good. In the interim, please contact us if you are interested in contributing a tax-deductible donation through our fiscal sponsor.

Re Evolution is a collective of engineers, artists, scientists and technologists working to ignite interest in what science and technology can be: participatory, engaging, exciting and imaginative.
Spearheaded by multimedia artist Kasey McMahon, we are currently working on bringing a large scale industrial science, art and technology festival to life in Los Angeles.
Kasey is a conceptual and multimedia artist based in Los Angeles, California. Her work is driven by her own curiosity regarding our distinctly individual interactions with technology, the world and each other. She is fascinated by the elegant complexity that exists within and between the natural and technological realms: both intricate and untamed in their own ways. Influenced as much by hardware stores and the monsters underneath her bed as by technology and fine art, Kasey believes imagination is a superpower we all possess and encourages the occasional sidestepping of grownup life to recall a child's eager fascination with the mundane.
