LAYERS begins by examining one of the most important layers in sharing scientific discoveries with the public: Journalism in its current state, but also the challenges it’s facing and the opportunities that lie in new technologies such as AI. These events will surface essential conversations about trust, truth, and the evolving role of storytelling in a rapidly changing media landscape.

Later in the Fall, you will discover that real discoveries are rarely neat. They’re made by people who question, challenge assumptions, and work through uncertainty. With our events and exhibition around the Terapixel Panorama, LAYERS shows these essential moments, turning abstract ideas and complicated methods into relatable stories. You will see how raw data transforms into clear insights, and why transparency and trust matter so much in science today.

You are invited to join us on this journey, not just as an audience, but as an active discovery partner. You will experience firsthand how true understanding emerges from careful observation, creative storytelling, and open conversation. Ready to peel back the layers? Join us for one of our events, happening at Pier 17 in the next months:
