From April 18 to 23, the Rome Science Festival is back, focusing on the theme "Imaginaries."
Hosted by Auditorium Parco della Musica, the Festival proposes to its audience a rich program of events and activities for schools and families. INFN will be involved in the Festival from the very first day, organizing the inaugural event that will feature the architect Massimiliano Fuksas and Nobel Prize-winning physicist Giorgio Parisi talking about the relationship between art and science for secondary school students. The following day the Sala Petrassi stage will feature music, voices and digital art in a conference show dedicated to supercomputing and artificial intelligence and their use in fundamental research and applications. Activities for children and families, meanwhile, will focus on elementary particles, the history of the universe and the artistic representation of scientific ideas for the youngest children.
All the events will be held in Italian.
