La Sobremesa invites you to “Is Another Technology Possible? Another Technology Is Possible,” a call for creative approaches to the problem of today’s technologies becoming too familiar, too present, too real—while their future remains too strange, too alien, too foreign.

This in-person gathering will bring together special guests and curious minds to collectively un-think technology as it has been etched into our lives. Through conversation and creative inquiry, we will imagine technological methods that emerge from its present strangeness—technologies that are low-tech, situated, and plural.

This evening is curated by Ana Prendes, who is a curator at Arts at CERN as well as a writer, and producer specialised in the crossovers of art, science, technology, and society. On this evening, she has invited a very special cohort of people to join her in a panel discussion and workshop.

The evening will offer attendees the chance to identify and propose how to make another technology possible from their own experiences and through a conversation between Ana Prendes (Arts at CERN), Sylvan Rackham, William Morgan, (co-founders of Restless Egg, an incubator for artist-founders), as well as artist Libby Hoffenberg (RCA).

There will be drinks, and music throughout the evening, fostering an environment where creativity and conversation take center stage.

This event is happening at Shai Space on Wednesday 16th April, from 6.30PM to 10PM, the ticketincludes the evening, workshop and a drink.
