The report of the symposium Exploring the Intersection of Arts, Science and Technology as Catalysts for Change, prepared by the artist Silvia Zayas and the photographs by Daniel Cao, can now be consulted in our media space.
The document includes the main reflections and contributions that were collected during the two days of this international meeting that brought together, on October 29 and 30, 2024 in Barcelona (headquarters of the Open University of Catalonia), some 200 people with the aim of promoting dialogue between disciplines and imagining new horizons and common challenges to contribute to addressing the great global challenges of contemporary society.
The Rapporteurship traces a tour of the different discussion panels, conferences, round tables and presentations that were held at the symposium and in which more than 50 international experts participated. The paper provides an overview of some of the debates currently affecting interdisciplinary research and practice between the arts, sciences, technologies and society.
The symposium was co-organized by Hac Te, the Hub of Art, Science and Technology of Barcelona, and the Open University of Catalonia (UOC) within the framework of the European project S+T+ARTS in the City, and had the support of the Department of Culture of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT).
