Would be great to get many people involved in this upcoming edition of TTT, this time happening in my favorite art/sci intermedia city of Ljubjana!
The sixth international conference “Taboo - Transgression - Transcendence in Art & Science” will take place September 9–13, 2025, in Slovenia, in partnership with [Kino Šiška].(https://www.kinosiska.si/). The TTT2025 Ljubljana conference remains dedicated to exploring
(a) the forbidden and the aesthetics of liminality through art that employs or is inspired by technology and science, and
(b) a free and inclusive space for creative, interdisciplinary convergence between science and art.
With our host partner and collaborating institutions, we look forward to building upon the collaborative spirit of previous gatherings, fostering discussions on the boundaries of art, ethics, and innovation.
