Being Human Festival

What lies between the lines? Is it in the stories and histories erased from view, or in the crossings and connections that shape our world? Perhaps it’s found in the silences, the margins, and the spaces where meaning is remade.

The Faculty of Arts is delighted to once again serve as an international hub of the UK’s Being Human Festival, presenting a program that explores these hidden layers and overlooked voices.

Step into the past and future: play an augmented reality game that reveals the invisible stories written into our campus or try your hand at ancient writing to uncover how knowledge was preserved, decorated, and sometimes coded. Together, these activities invite us to see history, technology, and imagination from the spaces in between.

Join in to uncover what is hidden in plain sight and explore the world between the lines.
