Music, dance, theatre, digital, literary and visual arts flourish at the technological research university, inspiring and reflecting research and education. Kicking off with the world premiere of "Radical Love" by DramaTech Theater on February 14, the 2014 Festival includes works that showcase the convergence of art and technology, and also works that are solely artistic in nature. The Festival will be held at venues across the Georgia Tech campus.
