Building on the professional experiences of the invited speakers, the seminar explores potential developments in the design of cinema spaces, both in new construction and in projects for the renovation of existing buildings. The seminar aims not only to be a moment of critical reflection but also an observatory on the new relationships between architecture, cinema, and society.
The aim is to explore potential new lines of research and actions that can reframe audiovisual spaces as hybrid, inclusive, and regenerative, where aesthetic, technological, and community dimensions converge in a contemporary cultural project.
