Titled 'Collective Imagination in the Era of Optimization,' this year's edition asked: How can artists, communities and technologies rewire shared futures when the dominant narratives emphasize acceleration and optimization? And what forms of togetherness and resistance surface through media within the context of artistic practices today?
