On 29 May from 2.00 pm to 3.30 pm, we invite you to an in-depth programme centred on the exhibition AUTONOMOUS: a talk and guided tour by curator Ine Gevers.
During this session, Gevers will offer an accessible and thought-provoking introduction to the exhibition, with a particular focus on the concept of cognitive capitalism as an all-encompassing architecture. What exactly does this system entail? Why does it pose a challenge in our current society? And in what ways can we engage with it?
Drawing on sharp observations and examples, Gevers explores possible strategies, including the question of whether a ‘neurospicy take-over’ could be a form of resistance. There is also room for reflection: what if you actually feel particularly susceptible to the temptations of this ‘normalisation machine’?
The talk will be followed by a guided tour of AUTONOMOUS, during which the themes discussed will be brought to life further within the exhibition.
Please note! The talk and guided tour will be held in Dutch.
