Cosmic residency x CERN’s IDEASQUARE

A creative mind-burst 150m above the largest human-built object to make science and design collide

During a three-month residency that took place above the world’s largest particle collider, I was invited to work with Japanese cosmic-artist Yuri Tanaka. Her mission was to create a platform for collaboration between CERN scientists and a designer, with the intention of investigating and proposing ways of creative coexistence of humanity in the universe.

The residency took place at CERN’s IdeaSquare, a structure bringing together researchers, engineers, startups and students to foster innovation at CERN. This space was an inspiring and fertile ground for the work as it is the world’s most powerful particle collider and the largest single machine in the world, and one of the unique places where peaceful international scientific collaboration takes place. 

I developed several interdisciplinary projects with CERN researchers thanks to the “cosmic artist” Yuri Tanaka, PhD student at the Tokyo University of the Arts and specialist in the establishment of a “mediation field” between creatives and scientists.
