What the algorithm tells us
–
Universidad Continental (auditorio)
We are puppets of the algorithm, although sometimes we don’t realise it. The puppet master is not always artificial intelligence itself, but rather those who pull the strings to predict and mould our behaviour. The science journalist Laura G. de Rivera (Spain) has spent years researching the consequences of this invisible control. In Esclavos del algoritmo she offers a necessary and critical view of the impact of algorithmic systems on our lives. In conversation with Daniel Mitma.

Publishing funds
–
Universidad Continental (auditorio)
Building an independent publishing house is like jumping into the void without knowing if there is a safety net. When she co-founded Angosta Editores with Héctor Abad Faciolince, Alexandra Pareja found many readers that supported an artisanal care for design, a curated selection that gave space to a diversity of literary genres, and an open door for emerging writers. Angosta Editores has turned into a success story, and its shelves include relevant authors such as Esteban Duperly, Orlando Echeverri Benedetti or Sara Jaramillo Klinkert. In conversation with the coordinator of the Editorial Collection of the Continental University Jullisa del Pilar Falla Aguirre.
Dario Sztajnszrajber in conversation with Daniel Mitma and Jorge Jaime Valdez
Love is impossible
–
Universidad Continental (auditorio)
Darío Sztajnszrajber (Argentina) has brought philosophy to thousands of people, filling venues and appearing on television and radio. He has captivated non-specialist audiences, dealing with the big philosophical questions of history and in contemporary ideas. In the eight theses of El amor es imposible, he dismantles the myth of normative romantic love. The philosopher questions ideas such as the perfect partner and invites us to rethink the notion of falling out of love as part of the desire for the impossible. In conversation with Daniel Mitmay Jorge Jaime Valdez, professor of the Communication Sciences programme.
Alejandra Moffat (Chile) is a natural when it comes to telling stories, whether as novels, tales or for the screen, and this is clear from her many successful screenplays for fiction, animation and documentary film. The young people who attend the workshop will learn basic notions when it comes to expressing their ideas in the outline of a script: from developing the plot to profiling the characters, and setting out the progression of the action.
