Did you know that artificial intelligence is also used in art and that there are even artists who build an orchestra from robots? In the workshop inspired by Vera Molnár, who uses technology as a tool to produce paintings that expand the boundaries of both science and art, children design a drawing robot using various materials. While exploring electrical circuits, motors and the design process, they imagine and create their own drawing robots. At the end of the workshop, the robots, which can make random drawings with the colors chosen by the children, dance freely on paper.

Memory of Objects

Memory of Objects

In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.

Memory of the Region

Memory of the Region

Objects also bear the memory of the geography to which they relate. Ceramics, with soil as their primary material, are directly linked to the land where they are produced: forging a direct relationship with earth, ceramics bear the memory of the soil where they come from.

Remembering the Future

Remembering the Future

How can the future be imagined by looking at a collection or an archive? The lasting quality of ceramics allows us to ponder how the future might be remembered through a ceramics collection, since they render conceivable time eternal.
