Screening of the documentary '20 años del Hay Festival en Colombia'
Presented by Cristina Fuentes La Roche
–
Centro Cultural Peruano Norteamericano (teatro)
20 years of the Hay Festival in Colombia condensed into a one-hour documentary. Through the voices of some of the most outstanding figures who have participated in the festival, the public can see some of the secrets behind the scenes of the Hay Festival in Colombia. Presented by Cristina Fuentes La Roche.
Culture influences people; it provides a sense of identity and belonging, and guides values and perceptions of the world. Understanding it helps societies to face challenges and handle conflicts, and comprehending cultural contexts constitutes a basis for professional approaches. María del Milagro Lozada (Peru) will explore non-verbal communication, as well as the theoretical frameworks and strategies that favour the recognition and understanding of cultures.

The fight against algorithms
–
Centro Cultural Peruano Norteamericano (auditorio)
Museums collect objects that can be often found separated from their vital networks. Moreover, algorithms fragment contemplative attention through the colonial gesture of isolating, classifying, extracting. In response to this, non-Western, interconnection epistemologies and cosmogonies operate in completely different forms of attention: multi-sensory, relational, where all is a live agent, never finished, always in a fluid and dynamic form. The challenge for the 21st century then consists of learning how to exhibit knowledge that resists the exhibition format, and how to create exhibitions-as-relationship-diagrams that do not reproduce neither the Western archival logic nor the smartphone’s “infinite scrolling”. Is an epistemic jump to the relational possible? In this session, Jorge Villacortaexplores those topics with José Carlos Mariátegui.
