Join us for the Synthetic Summit’s finale – a convergence of data, dialogue, and dramaturgy, as we build a live, unfolding archive together with Simiyya, the Cairo–Copenhagen platform manifesting technology’s entanglement with politics, aesthetics, and geopoetic metaphysics.
𝗦𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗔𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗹 𝟭𝟮 – 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 & 𝗦𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴
From 11 am - 6 pm (with designated breaks), the Synthetic Summit Simulator becomes a real-time testbed. Delegates from Simiyya – a platform which constructs interfaces between decolonialist and rationalist perspectives within the techno-political landscape – curate the proceedings. Scheduled status reports punctuate the day between 12-5 pm.
Two curated streams enrich the process: one foregrounds aesthetic and art theoretical perspectives, while the other elaborates the summit’s philosophy of tech-stakes as metaphysical infrastructure.
Meanwhile, Wiktoria Cukt checks in on Saturday to deliver critical insights, further refining the data collection process.
𝗦𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝟭𝟯 𝗔𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗹 – 𝗘𝗻𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 & 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
From 11 am - 6 pm, the focus shifts from collection to enactment. The Synthetic Summit’s living resolution is staged as a prosopopoeia – a character mask – where scripted question clusters and prompts dramatize the iterative loops of interpretation and re-interpretation. Olof Palme checks in with reflections from his radio dispatches, incorporating scripted question clusters and prompts that cosplay the iterative process of interpretation and re-interpretation. Simiyya and Computer Lars then close the curtains with final annotations.
The Synthetic Summit doesn’t end – it logs. This techno-social sculpture, composed of texts, models, and whatever vectorial, is primed for ongoing decompositioning and reactivation.
