DISCOVER THE BUNKER MAGAZINE

The Bunker Magazine steps out of the newsroom to meet its audience — with special guests, in an immersive environment filled with music and art installations. The event marks the beginning of a new phase for The Bunker – Human and Tech Magazine, a publication founded in 2024 to explore the deep connections between technological innovation and the human dimension.

The magazine does not simply report on technology — it investigates it through a humanistic lens, creating dialogue between art, culture, science, and critical thought. It serves as a platform for research and discussion, analysing how new media and emerging technologies redefine our perception of the world, the construction of reality, and the relationship between the analog and the digital. Through articles, columns, interviews, and podcasts, The Bunker invites readers to reflect on the meaning of innovation and its ethical and social implications, opening up a space for dialogue and shared vision.

At 6.30 pm, the main talk will begin, featuring two prominent figures from today’s media and cultural landscape: Francesco Oggiano, journalist and author, expert in digital communication and new media, founder of Will Media and contributor to Chora, and Leonardo Bianchi, journalist and writer, contributor to Internazionale and The Bunker Magazine.

The talk, moderated by the magazine’s editorial team, will also feature Laura Andreini, Director of Forma Edizioni and The Bunker; Serena Tabacchi, Artistic Director of The Bunker Magazine; Niccolò Carradori, Editorial Team The Bunker; Annibale Siconolfi, Artist; and Andrea Gherardi, CTO and Partner at Mirror, Digital Agency.

In conversation with the audience, the speakers will explore the theme of hyper-automation and its cultural and social implications: how the concept of work is evolving, which values emerge in shaping an ethics of artificial intelligence, and how information and knowledge can preserve their humanity in an era dominated by algorithms. The discussion will offer a broad perspective on what remains authentically human within the cultural dimension of our time.

At the end of the talk, the evening will continue with an aperitif, followed by a DJ set by Daniele Carcassi – experimental musician and DJ whose sound research combines analog synthesizers, digital processing, and field recording. For the occasion, he will be accompanied by immersive projections inspired by the magazine, transforming the Caveau of Manifattura Tabacchi into a sensorial space where music, art, and technology merge into a visual and sonic experience.
