Between the Possible and the Imaginary. Technological Magic and Scientific Research (Rome, 1/13-17/10)

The Science Festival 5th Edition
Tra Possibile e Immaginario. Magie Tecnologiche e Ricerca Scientifica

" From 13 to 17 January, the Auditorium will host the 5th edition of The Science Festival with a dense programme featuring meetings, debates, science cafés, exhibitions and events for schools. This year’s festival is produced by the Fondazione Musica per Roma, in collaboration with Codice – Idee per la Cultura, and promoted by FILAS, the Lazio Region agency for development and innovation. It is entitled “Tra Possibile e Immaginario. Magie Tecnologiche e Ricerca Scientifica” (Between the Possible and the Imaginary. Technological Magic and Scientific Research) and will explore the centuries-old relationship between science and technology with the help of some of the major and Italian and foreign figures in the world of knowledge and its analysis. In keeping with its now consolidated and multidisciplinary programming, the halls of the Parco della Musica are hosting, once again, a quality initiative that focuses on one of the most red-hot and controversial themes characterizing the current stage of the evolution of our civilization, and will pivot on analyses and discussions concerning the actual fate of our planet and hence that of all humanity.
