Neural Networks – Workshop #20 is an art and science workshop that is part of the project Conexiones en la Frontera which is based on the combination of scientific excellence and the performing arts as a common language to generate scientific dissemination from experience, artistic research in new creative formats and scientific experimentation through humans simulations. The Fundación Épica grants 30 SELECTED creatives to participate in the art-science workshop that will take place between May 6 and 27, 2024, both days included.

The workshop, which addresses the topic of neural networks, aims to investigate how psychiatrists observe our sick brain and how computer scientists solve problems in their artificial neural networks or AIs. This comparison will allow researchers to see similarities or divergences in the way they fix their problems. In this workshop we will try to make a representation of these processes, designing and presenting an experience based on the language and methodology of La Fura dels Baus and the scientific knowledge provided by different research groups. 

The call is aimed at creative people: artists, scientists and technologists, especially those with multidisciplinary and hybrid profiles who want to be part of a disruptive and innovative experience.
