[Text available only in English] After its debut at the Manifesta Biennial in Barcelona and the World Economic Forum in Davos, Togetherness will be showcased in Seoul during ISEA - the 26th International Symposium of Electronic Art.

When art, science, and artificial intelligence come together to transform the phenomenon of hate speech into awareness and harmony.

For over thirty years, Filippo Gregoretti has shaped an artistic universe where music, visual art, algorithms, and technologies intertwine in a profound and visionary dialogue. His relentless exploration has delved into the expressive possibilities offered by technology, transforming codes and data into tools of pure creativity. The scientists at Sony CSL Rome have carried out pioneering research on the infosphere and "augmented creativity," exploring how artificial intelligence can enhance human ingenuity, amplifying its capacity for understanding and innovation.

From the meeting of these two forces emerges Togetherness, a project that redefines how we perceive and address the phenomenon of online hate speech. Togetherness is not just a work of art, nor simply a scientific experiment: it is a multisensory experience that uses advanced tools of linguistic analysis, sound processing, and visual representation to translate the power of words into a flow of new, harmonious, and immersive perceptions. Hate speech, which often insidiously creeps into the folds of digital language, is sublimated and reworked into a tangible form, paving the way for deeper awareness and new modes of dialogue that make the "emotional resonance" of our contributions perceptible. The process of spatial and temporal transposition, from concept to artistic expression, is inspired by the behavioral theories on slow and fast thinking by Nobel Prize-winning cognitive psychologist Daniel Kahneman.

Far from being a mere abstraction, Togetherness redefines how we interact with language, transforming it from a potentially divisive element into a tool for awareness and connection. In this meeting of art and science, Gregoretti demonstrates that technology is not just a means of analysis but also a powerful vehicle for emotion, capable of translating conflict into an experience of collective transformation.
