Je suis invité à prononcer le discours d'ouverture de ARTeFACTo 2018.

The inaugural edition of the ARTeFACTo conference will be held on the 16th and 17th of November, at Palácio Ceia, in Lisbon, Portugal.

Also welcomed are articles fostering the establishment of the conceptual foundations of an artefact theory in the digital media world. ARTeFACTo 2018 aims at giving greater visibility to artefact creators or interveners, being these theorists or practitioners, establishing a common space for discussion and exchange of new experiences from transdisciplinary humanistic and holistic perspectives while fostering better understanding about digital arts and culture across a wide spectrum of cultural, disciplinary, and professional practices.
