On Conviviality

Taking as a point of departure the notion of conviviality described by the philosopher Ivan Illich in his text Tools for Conviviality (1973), this conference addresses the social and political dimension of the condition of living together. To think about conviviality today means to address the notion of equality under the point of view of social interaction, the way the notion of presence has been interpreted by the social media, the debate around modes of dissent and engagement, and the understanding of political and public forms of distribution.

This conference and the performance In vino veritates, a drunken lesson that closes the program on June 29 revolve around cultural behavior and, in the case of the performance, reflect on the effects of alcohol on perception and the learning process.
