📣 Open talk: How to create cultural projects that thrive through change While some debate what "real culture" even means, others are already using it as a tool — launching projects, reshaping cities, uniting communities, and setting the agenda. At this open session by the Moscow Institute of Psychoanalysis, we’ll explore what cultural design really is, how to build projects that won’t collapse at the first sign of change, and why entropy isn’t an enemy — it’s raw material. 🗣️ Speaker: Oksana Moroz, Candidate of Cultural Studies, co-author of popular science, educational, and cultural projects, and co-founder of MIP’s Department of Cultural Research. This session will be especially valuable for creatives, producers, managers — and anyone who wants to do more than just complete tasks: those who aim to design meaning and shape the future. Also for everyone deeply curious about culture. 📌 August 27, 17:00, online Register now Canvas Whispers
