Lecture 5 March

"We've Been Here Before... Sort Of! The Historical Dance of Tech and Art"

In this talk, Eliel Camargo-Molina invite you to explore a series of snapshots from history that capture moments when technology and creativity collided, when new inventions upended the old order and unexpectedly sparked breakthroughs in art and culture. These episodes help remind us that as technology is a destabilising force, it also ignites a creative evolution, pushing our understanding of human ingenuity to new heights. Yet, today's innovations are unfolding at an unprecedented pace and scale—faster, larger, and weirder than ever before. Will we see the same transformative interplay between tech and creativity this time around?

Eliel Camargo-Molina is a lecturer and researcher in the field of Game Design and High Energy Physics at Uppsala University. Eliel is also a passionate advocate for science communication, co-founder of the Art & Science Initiative, and a contributor to innovative projects and exhibitions in the field of creative media.

Come meet like-minded, listen, share, and get inspired! Fika will be served!
