This October, the historical Botanical Gardens in central Rome will host an event for our future. Our Bio-Tech Planet: the Future of Plants and Humans (OBTP), an international, cross-disciplinary, multimedia event, sprouts in Italy’s capital between October 24th and 30th, burgeoning, in turn, a series of cross-disciplinary art/science/technology workshops, talks, panel discussions and an art exhibition

Organized by the Berlin-based art/science/tech organization Art & Science Node (ASN) in conjunction with the EU Chic Innovation Consortium (CHIC), this week-long happening brings together a broad international and multigenerational group of innovators to begin a new constructive dialogue between humans and plants. The event explores our present with an eye to the future, posing the delicate questions that are proving increasingly necessary in today’s fraught world. Scientists and artists; humans and plants; the past and the future, biology and technology come together for a unique event to ask:

What’s next for the future of plants and humans?
