Papers by Franco Torriani
Prague – In December 2012, a unique conference – MutaMorphosis II was organized by CIANT. As curators and organizers stated “…Mutamorphosis II was a unique event in all contexts and its importance easily crossed the borders of all continents…” …As academic and strictly scientific platform for serious discussion of scenarios for future development of mankind, technologies, artificial life and post-human conditions, it was a solo event visited by artists, scientists and curators from around the world…
I was honoured to be selected as attractor in this event, a great and sensible experience (see abstract in attachment)

The 5th ENTER Biennale took place in Prague, with the title DATAPOLIS. It contained a diverse program, with an exhibition, workshops, a symposium and some audiovisual and dance performances. According to the organizers, this event "...refers to contemporary art as well as to art of our future, and works a great deal with the human relationship to both the environment in the broad sense and to contemporary cityscapes in the narrow sense."
