Space, Multiple Voices/

https://www.olats.org/global-periphery

*Friday Sept 23rd - Saturday Sept 24th 2022*

/Global Periphery/: a symposium and performance exploring 
contemporary imaginaries of outer space through examples of 
artistic creations and of space activities with voices from 
multiple continents and locations.

The current space competition —business, research, 
activities of all kinds— is world wide but the dominant 
narrative still comes from the USA. The space iconography is 
strongly NASA/Hollywood-driven.

What are the other narratives?

Who are the "others's voices"?

What do they say?

What can be said?

The /Global Periphery/ event intends to contribute to give 
voice to some of those other voices, to work together, to 
hybridized, to raise questions.

/Global Periphery/deals with the contemporary imaginaries of 
outer space, the existing ones, through examples, 
experiences and activities of both artists and cultural 
players on the one hand and engineers, scientists and the 
space sector on the other.
