TCCE is delighted to announce our fourth Philosophy and the Visual Arts Salon, developed in collaboration with the Philosophy Department at King’s College London. 

We have been running various salons together over a number of years and, in so doing, we bring complex philosophical notions into contact with a wider public sphere. This series explores the relationship between philosophy and the visual arts and, on 26th Oct, we are pleased to present Dr Sacha Golob in conversation with artist Kasia Molga.

Kasia Molga is an fusion artist working mixing media art, interaction design,  environmental science and creative coding & technology to working on the intersection of art, science, design and technology. She examines human perception and relationship with the planet/nature/environment  in the increasingly technologically mediated world in a context of environmental changes and unforeseen futures. She does so by exploring various aspects of transmitting and manifesting real time environmental and biological data.

At this salon, Kasia Molga and Philosopher Dr Sacha Golob will discuss the Digital, the Immersive and the Environmental.
