Why is it important to talk about editing and outsourcing in our current relationship with images?

What kind of ‘organ’ is becoming our imagination in the digital age?

Invited speakers of the panel discussion:

  • Salvatore Iaconesi & Oriana Persico (Artists and Designers)
  • Pietro Montani (Onorary Professor of Aesthetics at Sapienza University of Rome)

The panel started with a discussion of the themes collected in the ebook “Dentro/Fuori. Il lavoro dell’immaginazione e le forme del montaggio” that I co-edited with Dora Ciccone and Alma Mileto.

At the end of the panel, participants had the opportunity to preview the exhibition dedicated to Sergej Michajlovič Ėjzenštejn.
