Fricciones, an international meeting for learning exchanges, will serve as a forum to share unexpected situations that allow us to rethink how we want to learn. The event seeks to create spaces where new forms and experiences of learning can emerge.

Life in a state of frenzy: the pulse uncontrolled. The city streets are getting narrower, the walls of your room are getting closer. Sleepwalking into acceleration. Your veins pound, you feel your heartbeat in your throat - don't think, how will you act? - Fight! Dance on the volcano: crises create creative souls. The pupils dilated, hands trembling. Our world, an arena: Protest becomes excessive euphoria. Flight! Danger of collapse. Are we the creators of the crisis? Hit the gas. All roads lead to a dead end, the void. You hear screams, could be yours. Freeze! Paralysis. The world turns, we don't. Buildings collapse. You catch your breath. What now?

To float is to be still. To float is to displace. To float is to decontextualize. To float is to voyage. To float is to survive. To float is to escape. To float is to relinquish a desire. To float is to exist apart from, to be outside of. To float is to venture the possibility of a thought. To float is to suspend disbelief. To float toes the line between desire and necessity.
