Let’s go back to Sónar+D!
The second edition of the Open Forum on Arts, Science & Technology at Sónar+D, an activity promoted by the ACTS Network and organised by HacTe, explores the relationships between arts, science and technology, in a meeting for the transdisciplinary exchange of emerging technologies, frontier research and artistic research.
Moderated by the curator, researcher and cultural manager specialized in the intersections between the arts and techno-scientific culture Maria Ptqk, and the director of Hangar, Anna Manubens, the event will bring together artists and scientists from various fields of knowledge to share research questions and incipient projects in a dynamic format to inspire and seduce each other, and encourage new collaborations.
Throughout the session we will learn about the three new pilots that the ACTS network will launch this year, as well as the recent publication of the GRAPA 2023 Notebooks and the .able magazine.
Three practical cases of collaboration underway in the field of ACTS in Catalonia will also be presented. These are artist residencies in research centres within the framework of the European project S+T+ARTS in the City focused on urban challenges such as climate change, sustainable energy or social polarisation.
