Presentations, discussion and music
Jun 11 2018

Will a robot be able to perform music perfectly, and maybe even better than a musician?
Will we enter a world full of new possibilities, or rather one that is cold and distant?
An evening with presentations and discussion about opportunities versus threats, dreams versus disappointments, enrichment versus cultural poverty, with scientists, composers, artists and music.
