Here's the programme of conferences featuring all the fabulous guests that are set to make this year’s festival on smart mistakes really special.
This year, the role of guest curator of the Piemonte Share Festival has been split three ways so as to triple the Festival’s scope of enquiry into the artistic and cultural import of error, focusing on three fields.
For each thematic cluster, a keynote speaker will shed insight on the value of error in creative enquiry. In this way technological and media mistakes will be looked at by Kim Cascone, musician and theorist of the aesthetics of failure, while the Australian artist and performer Stelarc, together with the curator and artistic director of the Kapelica Gallery in Ljubljana, Jurij Krpan will focus on biological mistakes. Celebrated writer Bruce Sterling will instead be focusing on the value of chance discovery.
The Share Festival Symposium will then continue with a series of lectures and dialogues between guests from diverse fields, speakers and the audience, called upon to exchange their views on cultural and social issues affecting the everyday lives of all people.
Here're the guests: Christian Ulrik Andersen, Tatiana Bazzichelli, Edoardo Bonaspetti, Edoardo Boncinelli, Cristophe Bruno, Roberta Buiani, Mario Calabresi, Antonio Caronia, Max Casacci, Geoff Cox, Chiara Figone, Valeria Gandus, Fulvio Gianaria, Salvatore Iaconesi, Les Liens Invisibles, Giorgio Maffei, Caden Manson, Anna Masera, David Orban, Oriana Persico, Gianluigi Ricuperati, Dario Salani, Jasmina Tesanovic, Samuel Tronçon, Wu-Ming 1 and Siegfried Zielinski.
