Arteficial
Exploring the fate of
intelligence
Arteficial is a week-long retreat with no purpose other than discussing how the arts and crafts provide material to rethink institutions, value, values, and what it means to be human in the contemporary world
Arteficial
Places
Arteficial participants will be given access to the collection at Palazzo Butera to explore, imagine and invent new ways to tackle the complex challenges we face, from migration to the need to rethink capitalism
Arteficial
Narratives
Arteficial is a space for developing new narratives to experiment inclusive forms of social cohabitation that cope with the continuous mixing of cultures, technologies and practices
Arteficial
Connections
Arteficial is about exploring the connections between disciplines, professional knowledges, peoples, approaches, experiences, heritages, pasts and presents to imagine and make different futures
Arteficial
Mazes
Arteficial is a maze to get lost and find new meanings, learnings, networks, means and ends, and be a-mazed by what one discovers
Arteficial
Speculation
Arteficial combines times and spaces for lonely study and reflection with communal experiences where one can share, learn and explore
Arteficial
Play
Arteficial offers a stage to play and perform, to rethink our ‘socie-ties’, that is, the links that make individuals civic beings parts of communities
Arteficial
Futures
Arteficial makes one reflect on memory as a way to think of oneself as another and imagine possible collective futures with no shared purpose but with a collective commitment to its pursuit
Arteficial
Void
Arteficial creates and builds on a void, on the absence of a prescriptive mode of meeting to create a productive new space for education, research and enjoyment that redefines education and the university in the contemporary world
Arteficial
Regeneration
Arteficial aims at regenerating modes of producing and sharing wealth, ideas and experiences by rethinking individuals’ interests with the pursuit of a common good that is not very common
Arteficial
Making
Arteficial offers the possibility to openly rethink our institutions, practices and modes of existence in a milieu where fragmentation, instability, incomprehensibility are the norm but become worth
