E DIGITAL TWIN

UNIVPM

DOVE: Gabinetto del Sindaco

QUANDO:

Domenica 20 Ottobre, ore 16.30

Non è necessaria prenotazione

Nel dibattito/conferenza, verrà affrontata la tematica della rappresentazione di Sé nell’attuale era digitale e dei social media, offrendo spunti in ambito psichico.

Talora i Social Media sono ricercati come riflesso del Sé, come strumenti di correzione di quelle che reputiamo le nostre “storture ed asimmetrie” rispetto ad una rappresentazione digitale per così dire ‘ideale’.

Più recentemente, alcune applicazioni digitali, quali il Digital Twin, ci offrirebbero la possibilità di creare un “noi digitale”, simmetrico in tutto e per tutto, che potrebbe addirittura aiutarci a conoscerci meglio!
