Using fog as a metaphor, this lecture explores the increasingly immaterial and diffuse nature of our world—manifest in the translucent facades of our cities, immersive artworks, the digital clouds storing our data, the smoke from wildfires, invisible surveillance mechanisms, and the opaque operations of financial capital. The event also marks the launch of a curated course track by Guilherme Wisnik, featuring four programs focused on architecture and art. Attendees will receive a 30% discount on registration for courses within this thematic track.
