Symbolon
The word symbolon originates from ancient Greek, derived from symballein, meaning "to throw together" or "to join." A symbolon was a physical token, often a clay or bone object, broken into two pieces, each held by different parties. When reunited, the pieces confirmed their connection, revealing a complete meaning or identity. This seminar embodies that concept, acting as a symbolon to bridge fragmented knowledge, uniting diverse perspectives with art as a subtle, connective medium to deepen our understanding of the AI era and its profound impact on human existence.

PMMC2
We co-organize PMMC, a seminar that started in 2023 by Gregoire Sergeant-perthuis, which encompasses mathematical and computational models of cognition and consciousness. Its aim is to stay updated on novel findings and emerging computational frameworks related to cognition and consciousness. The particularity of this seminar is to go into the technical details (mathematical and formal) of these models and the associated results. The sessions are longer than usual seminars (2h).
