Cristina Díaz Moreno and Efrén Ga Grinda, co-founders of amid.cero9, will discuss how their practice cultivates a post-digital, aferterpop approach to the contemporary notion of space that enlists socioloogy, technology, media, politics and representation in projects ranging from architecture to design, ecosystemic studies, and hybrid urban projects.
