We brought the vibrant spirit of our Speculum Artium festival to this world of imagination and made sure there wasn't a single dull moment at our booth.

What kind of mischief did we get up to?
🎬 We created Star Wars-themed stop-motion animations.
🤖 We programmed with robotic mice and cute little pandas.
🥕 We played real musicians and made music using fruit and vegetables.
🥽 With VR headsets, we took visitors deep down into the mine and high up to the tallest chimney in Europe.
💎 We even brought along a "real goblin's treasure"!
🐕 And our robotic pup took the whole vibe so seriously that he even got "tattooed" along the way!

A huge thank you to the organizers for their wonderful hospitality, and to all the amazing volunteers for their help and energy. 🫶✨

🧪 Kaj danes pomeni »laboratorij«?
V predavanju 𝗙𝗮𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮 𝗟𝗮𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗲, umetnika in raziskovalca, smo spoznavali, kako se laboratoriji spreminjajo v prostore ustvarjalnosti, sodelovanja in prepletanja umetnosti z znanostjo.

Če vas zanima, kako sodobni laboratoriji brišejo meje med disciplinami in spodbujajo nove oblike skupnega raziskovanja, vas vabimo k ogledu predavanja. 🎥✨

📌 𝗗𝗿. 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗠𝗶𝗵𝗮𝗶 𝗠𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗻 razkriva, kako generativna umetna inteligenca preoblikuje ustvarjalnost, učenje in identiteto. Raziskuje tako priložnosti kot tveganja, ki jih prinašajo te tehnologije, s poudarkom na njihovem vplivu na metakognicijo - našo sposobnost razmišljanja o lastnem razmišljanju.

📌 Posebna pozornost je namenjena tudi pojavu t. i. “intelektualnega odpravljanja spretnosti”, kjer lahko takojšnji in dovršeni rezultati spodkopljejo globoko razmišljanje, reševanje problemov in pristno ustvarjalno izražanje.

📌𝗗𝗿. 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗠𝗶𝗵𝗮𝗶 𝗠𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗻 explores how generative AI transforms creativity, learning, and identity. He examines both the opportunities and risks these technologies bring, with a focus on their impact on metacognition - our ability to think about our own thinking.

📌 Special attention is given to the phenomenon of “intellectual skill displacement,” where instant and polished results may undermine deep thinking, problem-solving, and authentic creative expression.
