INTERSECTIONS: Art, Science, and Community is part of Galerie Utopia’s yearly program at the 4lthangrund Cultural Center. This symposium brings together educators and scholars working at the intersection of scientific research and artistic methodologies. Topics include DIY technologies, AI communication, cyborg bodies and digital twins, agriculture and nature preservation, zombie studies, and artificial fertilization – all explored within a social context. The symposium investigates how these interdisciplinary relationships influence communities across different localities, considering their potential for promoting social expansion or acting as invasive structures.
