DESCRIPTION:
Becoming Hyperhuman in an Age of Extremes
Yesterday’s magic is today’s technology.
We created machines to extend and enhance ourselves.
They enabled us to understand, craft and manipulate reality.
But in the midst of an unprecedented technological acceleration, where machines surpass us in domains considered to be exclusively human, we need to once again ask ourselves:
What is a human being?
Join us for More than Machine / Less than Human, a two day co-creative exploration of human possibilities in an era of technological extremes.
Combining a philosophical symposium, cyberdelic cabaret, and networking hub, this will be an opportunity to meet and forge friendships with philosophers, artists, scientists and entrepreneurs from the bleeding edge of 21st century culture.
SYMPOSIUM (FRIDAY)
Our philosophical symposium brings together four experts from the frontlines of network culture.
Join us for an evening of discussion, debate, and drinks, examining questions of art, desire, transcendence, sex and survival in the age of the machine.
Featuring: Cadell Last, Thomas Hamelryck, Carl Hayden Smith and Daniel Fraga. Panel moderated by Raven Connolly.
CYBERDELIC CABARET (SATURDAY)
Confronted with cheap, mass-produced AI “art” and copy-paste remixes of everything we once held sacred, the only viable response is to plunge deeper than ever into the depths of the human soul – and deal with the consequences.
In light of this, the cyberdelic cabaret is an affirmation of the human, all too human in all of us.
Join us on Saturday evening for a co-creative cabinet of curiosities, an immersive gallery featuring art, performance, music, costumes and shiny pretty things.
Expect laughter, tears, thrills, spills, angelic choruses and blasphemy.
UNCONFERENCE SPACE (SATURDAY)
The unconference space is a semi-structured networking cafe that will run on Saturday afternoon before the evening event.
It will be an opportunity to make new connections, get to know some of the organizers and speakers, and test out ideas in a live setting.
