La French Tech Grande Provence

‘STARTS Talk: Art & Tech for Urban Resilience’

9 Sept.'20
- 17:30

Online event

The concept of the ultra-technological and connected "smart city" has given way, in the light of climate change and health crisis, to that of the search for a resilient and sustainable city, enhancing accessibility, social inclusion, and citizen wellbeing. What place should be given to the dialogue between art, science and technology in this transition process? How can artists help to create new collective imaginaries, spaces for reflection and criticism for the future of our cities? All these questions and many more will be discussed during this STARTS Talk.
