Future events: Symposium - What Transdisciplinary Knowledge Looks Like
ABRA symposium - “What Transdisciplinary Knowledge Looks Like”
The “What Transdisciplinary Knowledge Looks Like” symposium showcases contemporary knowledge alchemists: designers, artists, and scientists who transcend disciplinary boundaries in order to discover and to test alternative projections of technologies and modes of thinking. Are they rogue agents of provocation, or pioneers of future professions?
ABRA (Artificial Biology, Robotics and Art) project in collaboration with MOME invites educators, students, researchers, designers, artists, and scientists to jointly envision a bridge between possibilities in transdisciplinary education and the professions of tomorrow.
Place: MOME auditorium, Budapest
Time: May 10, 15.30-19.00
15.30 registration and coffee
16.00 Welcome and about the ABRA project by Dr. Karina Vissonova, ADES (HU)
