Creativity in a World of Technology: A Modern Trend to Old Ways - Hybrid MORE >>
Technology has immense power to elevate our imagination, providing us with powerful digital tools to unleash creativity to innovate. But the question is, should we always strive to innovate in order to grow and stay competitive in this modern world? Perhaps, sometimes, innovation is not always about something new. It can also be about seeing what is around us from a new perspective, fusing the age-old techniques with new points of view. The key is being creative and not being afraid to experiment until something that works is found. By utilizing different pieces in harmony we will create not just a sense of authenticity but also a sense of history. << LESS |

The Quiet Revolution How Korean Literature is Influencing the World MORE >>
There are many insights that can be drawn from the Nobel Prize in Literature that Han Kang received in 2024. From violence against women, geopolitics in the world of literature, to numerous other humanitarian issues. One topic that is also worth discussing is the massive cultural diplomacy efforts that Korea has made in the last two decades, especially through literature. In addition to Han Kang, Indonesian readers are now familiar with the literary works of Korean writers such as Cho Nam Joo, Min Jin Lie, and many others. Han Kang's crowning as a Nobel laureate in literature and the growing popularity of Korean literature in various parts of the world are, to some extent, the result of Korea's continuous cultural diplomacy efforts. In this discussion, we will talk about the introduction of Korean literature in Indonesia and the intricacies of their cultural diplomacy. << LESS |

The Southteast Asia Palate How Migration Shapes Culinary Trends MORE >>

These resemblances are not just a matter of taste, but they also represent the values of the people of Southeast Asia. In this session, we'll discuss the traces of culinary similarities across Southeast Asian societies, and how they can serve as a key asset for future cultural products, helping to strengthen ties between Southeast Asian countries. << LESS |

Preserving a historic building is not just about maintaining the integrity and authenticity of every material aspect it possesses. It is also about ensuring that the building's value remains relevant over time. One of the ways that architects or designers do this is by repurposing and giving the building an innovative touch. Hence, we see how historic buildings are transformed into lively public spaces or become part of various art performances. << LESS |
