About the event
A new technological universe has created new artistic landscapes. During the MetaTalks, artists, curators, and industry professionals who work in contemporary art and digital technology in Cyprus are invited to get into conversation and discuss the future of art in the Metaverse. During the MetaTalks we will delve deep into the metaverse with a series of round table discussions on various related topics such as AI, NFT’s and different realities. How are we interacting with it, and how can we shape its future direction in a more ethical and collaborative manner?
Through these round table discussions, we'll share insights and explore key questions such as: What are the forms of artistic practices at the intersection of the physical and the virtual? How do artists engage with the ethical, social, and environmental implications of these technologies? How can we counter big tech in deciding what the metaverse is and can become? And what role do we, as participants, play in shaping its future direction?
The MetaTalk series will start on May 3 at 7pm with a keynote from curator Yev Kravt, followed by a round table discussion, and wrapped up by MetaDrinks and bites.
