Let´s see the future at +Humanos in Barcelona!
Have a look on all the possibilities that our future can
offer us! On the show of
+Humanos in Barcelona our future will be represented through the discoveries of
science, technology and the digital evolution.
The CCCB (Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona) presents one of the most interesting expositions of the season. You can
have a look on how the future of human kind will be like, or what role could cyborgs,
superhumans or clones can have. The question is: is it the evolution or the human
extension that could form our future? What´s the meaning of human kind and what the upcoming centuries bring
us?
The exposition +Humanos give you the chance to look beyond
the limits of human body, humanity, sociality and search the answer for what´s ethically
acceptable and what´s not. This
exposition is being organized as the extension of a project presented in Science
Gallery of Trinity College Dublin, in 2011.
In total we can see the artworks of more than 50 artists and
pioneers and get an insight of the different ways how our species can transform
in the future - from assisted reproduction techniques and incipient experiments
in synthetic biology to the possibility to perpetuate us through the digital
realm. Every statement of the
show is related, mediated and defined by new technological and scientific
fields.
The exhibition separate 4 main topics:
- The increased capacities
- Meeting with extraterrestrials
- The design of environment
- Life in its own limits
Each topic
will be represented by using work of arts, historical artifacts, videos, scientific
investigations or commercial products.
