Techno India University

Day 1 of the Kolkata Design Festival is all about imagination and we're just getting started.

Step into Y2K Fever Dreams and lose yourself in a glitchy, chrome-soaked nostalgia trip. Then hunt for hidden faces lurking in the campus walls with Glitch in the Realm 👁️, because once you see them, you can't unsee them. And wrap up the day getting your hands dirty with Analog Automata ⚙️, where matchsticks, rubber bands and cardboard become something alive.

No passive spectating. Today, you make, you see, you dream.
Because the future is designed here.

When: 29th May, 9 AM to 4 PM
Where: Techno India, School of Design, J 1/15, EP GP Block, Sector 5, Kolkata 700091, opposite Mediasiti Building
