“The Future Manifestos Conference gathers speakers who dare to pose dangerous questions and issue bold declarations about how to think, create, and act in a world increasingly conditioned by Artificial Intelligence.” — Zane Cerpina, Artistic Director at TEKS
Over one extended weekend, Future Manifestos turns Trondheim into a meeting point for artists, researchers, and publics who want to rethink how AI and emerging technologies shape cultural and political futures. The program combines the exhibition opening at Kjøpmannsgata Ung Kunst (April 9, 18:00), daytime conference sessions at DIGS (April 10–11, 10:00–14:30), an evening theatre piece at Rosendal Teater (April 10, 20:00), and live performances at K-U-K (April 11, 16:00–17:30).
