On 11 November at 5 p.m. (GMT) (Lisbon time, 6 p.m. CET), another session of ‘Art meets Tech’ will take place, in which we will explore art, time, technology and transformation.
 

With her groundbreaking artworks, Amy Karle explores how new and exponentially growing technologies such as AI, biodesign and quantum systems are not only tools of innovation, but also companions in the unfolding development of life, intelligence, consciousness and the future.

Based on intensive observation, holistic reflection and multidisciplinary collaboration, this session invites participants to tune in to the signals of the future that are already resonating in the present. Participants will get to know Karle's artworks, which translate invisible forces – biological, emotional and cosmic – into visible, tangible forms that awaken new forms of collaboration across collective intelligence. From co-creation with stem cells to encoding DNA and human heritage in space-bound archives, her work shows what it means to be human in a rapidly changing world.

This lecture is aimed at artists, technologists, cultural thinkers and anyone interested in the role of creativity, critical thinking and ethics in our future development.
The Art Meets Tech series explores visual arts, music, narrative and craftsmanship, highlighting technologies such as AI, Web3, immersive technologies, digital manufacturing and creative coding. With a focus on online workshops and hybrid formats, the programme offers practical experience, critical discussion and networking within a diverse European community. It invites participants to discover how technology is reshaping art and how art is redefining technology – a dynamic platform for the exchange of ideas and skills.

BIO

Amy Karle

Amy Karle is an internationally recognised, ultra-contemporary artist who specialises in the impact of new and exponential technologies on humanity and evolution. She creates hybrid forms that combine physical, biological and computer-based systems and
envisions how technology can be used to support and enhance life and intelligence, while actively working towards this goal. She is considered one of the first to bridge biology and computer science in art and design.

Named one of the 100 most inspiring women in the world by the BBC, Karle's groundbreaking works have been exhibited in prestigious institutions worldwide, including the 798 Art District, Ars Electronica, the CAFA Art Museum, the Centre Pompidou, and even on the moon and in space. 

A sought-after speaker and thought leader, Karle participates in global think tanks and high-level discussions on deep tech, AI and the ethical development of technology. Her work has been cited in over 6,000
scientific papers. Karle was awarded the Pioneer in Design Award for her life's work and is considered one of the most influential women in the field of 3D printing. She served as an Artist Diplomat for the US State Department and advocated for social innovation and women's empowerment through art and technology.
