Conference events

On the evening of the 17th July, at the Mutua Cinema, the short film 'Sonos 'E Memoria' will be shown, followed by a debate with the director of the film, Gianfranco Cabiddu.

On the evening of the 18th July, at the Cavallera Theatre, there will be an interesting exhibition of scientific experiments conducted by Prof. Guido Pegna from the Department of Physics, Cagliari University.

Apart from some works by Fabio Mauri, the conference will also hold other photographic exhibitions, including those of Luca Nave, Fabrizio Biasin e Simona Cosa.

Note about the programme

In the last couple of days we have fine-tuned the programme and made a couple of small changes. In particular, we have changed some of the participants’ names for several of the forums, and provided more details of the events surrounding the conference.
