DIFRACTA

DIFRACTA is an international and transdisciplinary festival that relates quantum physics with art, design, technology, and contemporary thought. The first edition explores how concepts such as entanglement, indeterminacy, and relationality allow us to rethink the ways of investigating, creating, and producing knowledge. The programme is structured around the epistemological, ontological, methodological, and ethical dimensions. It includes four keynote lectures by Maciej Lewenstein, Vlatko Vedral, Evelien Geerts, and Femke Snelting, and a closing conference delivered by Mónica Bello. The festival also features sixteen research and creation laboratories. Participants include Pep Vidal, Anja Groten, Peter Teunissen, Jack Isles, Claudia Claremí, Abelardo Gil-Fournier, Sonia Contera, Josep Perelló, Antonio Gagliano, Astrid Schrader, Ellen G. Richardson, Blanca Pujals, José Luis de Vicente, Jara Rocha, Lucía Ángel C. Pino, Lara García Díaz, María García Ruiz, and the Ludic Thought Laboratory, composed of Antonio R. Montesinos and Susana Rodilla. Dr. masharu, Reiko Yamada, and Lúa Coderch present three artistic and performative activations. Languages: English, Spanish, and Catalan. Accessibility: The keynote lectures and closing conference have real-time subtitles. For more information about DIFRACTA, consult the Eina website.
