BRAIN CHAMBER

Centering new expertise and knowledge exchange

Brain Chamber by Futures and Fringes is a creative incubation partnership between Ace Hotel Toronto and Futures and Fringes — a creator development series that invites curious guests into the creative process of an emerging artist, designer, or brand.

We believe investment in individual creative capacity creates a multiplier effect, transforming culture and behavior to make entire communities more capable and thus, more audacious.

Why now

Brain Chamber is a prompt to experiment with adjacent folks of various creative disciplines. Post-pandemic, the disappearance of creative hubs in Toronto continues to impact creators and we saw an opportunity for communal collaboration through knowledge exchange and creative experimentation. While the creative process can be inherently individualistic, we wanted to test a tasteful community format for idea provocation that mediates creative enrichment through a collective prompt while reducing isolation.

The local community’s need for raw, yet refined connection: Ace Hotel Toronto is our incubation partner, providing a centerpoint opportunity of collision of cultural exchange between cool, unexpected company of global communities and contrasting interests.
