FIGMENT Jackson brings the community together for a multi-day, family-friendly explosion of interactive creativity April 28-29. Highlights from last year's event included a life-size camera obscura, wearable sculptures and a 50-foot interactive model of the Pearl River. One of the most elaborate pieces was the Samplotron, a Mobius sculpture made from reclaimed metal and wood. Visit http://jackson.figmentproject.org.
