S+T+ARTS Afropean Intelligence

S+T+ARTS Afropean Intelligence aims to create spaces for reflection and experimentation at the intersection of the arts, science and technology through a cooperative approach between 11 cultural organizations across Africa and Europe.

Through the S+T+ARTS Prize Africa and a program of 10 residencies deployed in five countries of the continent (Nigeria, Egypt, Tunisia, South Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo), Afropean Intelligence aims to critically explore the uses of AI by identifying its impacts and collectively addressing its challenges in local contexts. By bringing together CCI experts, artists, technologists and scientific figures, the project promotes a reflexive intercultural dialogue through artistic innovation, and takes a critical look at technologies such as (generative) AI. Through these intersecting voices, in a context where artificial intelligence occupies an exponential place and will inevitably shape the face of tomorrow’s societies, S+T+ARTS Afropean Intelligence aspires to question Afro-European narratives and promote a global humanist discourse while taking care to preserve cultural heritage and ancestral knowledge.
