two days to Connect, share, and create

As part of the Improbable 2041 exhibition, this yearly meetup brings together founders, instructors, and close members of the Art Thinking network.
Rather than looking back at the past 15 years, we project ourselves 15 years into the future and look back at today—opening space for new perspectives, parallels, and ideas to emerge.

Across these two days, the intention is to:

  • connect the network through shared experiences

  • share practices and perspectives

  • create ideas, artistic material and experiences that will feed the improbable project


Day 1 — July 6th
10:00 AM - 07:00 PM

OPENING SESSION: HEADING TOGETHER TO IMPROBABLE2041

10:00 AM

Where does the network stand today, and where do we want to be by 2041? A plenary followed by workshops to explore what makes us unique and how to strengthen it collectively.

LIVING MAP OF THE NETWORK'S BIFURCATIONS

A moment to celebrate who we are together: after a plenary on the four Improbable regimes, we build a collective installation where each of us contributes an object and a moment of bifurcation.

LUNCH BREAK @ESCP

12:00 AM

FROM ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO BODY INTELLIGENCE

01:30 PM

As artificial intelligence increasingly shapes how we think and learn, a crucial question emerges: what does the body know that algorithms don't?
This conversation gathers voices from neuroscience, somatic practice, performance art, and professional dance to explore a paradox — that embodied intelligence and artificial intelligence may not be opposites, but potentially complementary ways of knowing.
What if the question isn't "can AI replace the body's wisdom?" but rather "how do we design learning and creation where both intelligences strengthen each other?" Together, they'll probe how to honour what the body knows while leveraging what machines can do, and what becomes possible when we stop seeing them as competing forces.

AI-BASED AND BODY BASED EXPERIMENTATION WORKSHOPS

02:30 PM

Two workshops to experiment AI-based or body-based pedagogical practices curated within the Improbable network.

improbable education // July 8th & 9th 2026

Two days to reimagine Learning in the age of AI

Paris

Education is being reshaped in real time. AI, climate challenges, geopolitical shifts, and social transformations are redefining how we teach, learn, and imagine the future. In this context, incremental change is no longer enough.

Improbable Education is a two-day immersive experience designed to explore and prototype what education could become. Bringing together educators, researchers, deans, students, artists, and critical thinkers, the workshop creates a space to experiment beyond existing frameworks.

As a member of the Art Thinking network, you are invited to join this experience at a special rate.

More than participants, we see you as contributors. This is an opportunity to bring your perspective, share your practices, and engage with a community that is actively shaping new educational narratives.
