The idea of this forum is to establish an open dialogue between general public and people dedicated to the interface between art, consciousness and technology. In the forum, the question plays the major role of relating the complexity of the participants projects and issues of daily reality in the voice of the invited perguntadores (‘question makers’). The perguntadores will be intellectuals related to each of the five main topics of the round tables, but not particularly engaged in the context of art and technology. F.A.q. gathers 17 members of the Planetary Collegium, Brazilian artists and prominent intellectuals in the fields of science, culture and thought in a program of three days of lectures, round tables and commented digital art shows. http://www.faq.art.br/en.html
