Other Borders

Position 7PQ: Capacities. Science in Society

Goal: to spread and help the new scientific nanotechnology border with a shared job between researchers and artists.

Market goal: innovators, pioneers, predated majority

Present Company description:
Coordination, association CASO,
Partner 1 – Swedish association;
Partner 2 – Slovak association;
Partner 3 – Leonardo on line magazine-
After the European Board selection it will be established the OTHER BORDERS COMBINE.

Company structure: functional

Development and general schedule: 6 nanotechnology arguments will be touched:
A) Nano and macro world
B) Photovoltaic
C) Nanomedicine
D) Ethic
E) Environmental impact
F) New materials

1. For every arguments the project director will choose 2 scientific coordinators and 2 artistic
coordinators, in all there will be 12 coordinators.

2. Everybody’s function will be to select 3 artists and 3 researchers for their specific argument
and for their skills (artistic or scientific).

At the end there will be in all 18 artists and 18 researchers. Every argument will be examined by 8 people – 1 artistic coordinator, 1 scientific coordinator, 3 artists, 3 researchers.
Every artist/researcher will be chosen on the base of one essential characteristic: multifeeling.
Every work team will meet, compare ideas, produce things throughout a period of 2 years.
All the works will be presented and exposed time by time in scientific parks, scientific museums, HiTech fairs, etc…to be seen/listened/read/touched by all the visitors.
The European and Extra European tour coordination will be decided between the partners. Every tour will last two years.
At the end of the tour, all the works will be back in Italy and exposed in different places where conferences, meetings, congresses will be based on the 6 big arguments with the presence of every coordinator, artist and researcher in conjunction with well-known world guests.

.OTHERBORDERS will be repeated every 7 years and will be presented at every PQ supporting the European Community program.

Short description

NANOTEC2008 will show how nanotechnology can lead to the development of a new generation of products, devices and processes which can revolutionise sectors of great relevance. The agenda will mirror the objectives of the Strategic Programme launched by the Italian Government, Industry 2015, which focus also on themes that are at the front line at world level:

• Energy efficiency;
• Sustainable mobility;
• New technologies for life sciences;
• New technologies for Made in Italy;
• Innovative technologies to preserve the cultural heritage.

Long description

Nanotechnology, the ability to observe and manipulate matter at nanoscale, in the range between 1 and 100 nanometres, is considered one of the drivers capable of shaping the technological evolution of the XXI Century. In the past years all over the world increasing human and economical resources have been devoted to this sector. Nano-related products are already available on the market, but the full impact of nanotechnology has yet to be realised. The expectations are high.

NANOTEC2008, jointly organised by Airi/Nanotec IT, Veneto Nanotech and Regione Veneto, intends to:

• Give a comprehensive picture of nanotechnology at Italian level in relation to activity, perspectives and needs, in comparison to what happens in other countries;
• Present the latest developments and trends in terms of R&D, applications and governance at world level;
• Offer the opportunity for a debate amongst representatives of industry, public research and governmental bodies;
• Stimulate initiatives of cooperation, coordination and support aimed to promote and make more effective the efforts in this field.

• Energy efficiency;
• Sustainable mobility;
• New technologies for life sciences;
• New technologies for Made in Italy;
• Innovative technologies to preserve the cultural heritage.

A session will be specifically devoted to the responsible development of nanotechnology, crucial for the success of this technology.

Call for papers
Those interested to present a poster or an oral presentation are invited to submit a short abstract to info@nanotec2008.it by January 18th, 2008 (abstract guidelines at: www.nanotec2008.it).

Information about the Conference programme and participation will be timely updated at:
