Reading and Thinging is an informal get-together that crosses a reading group with a ’show and tell’ session – exploring different themes in philosophy, science and culture through a curated reading list and discussion of objects.The project is a collaboration between current FACT PhD researchers Alex Pearl and Sam Skinner, and FACTLab residents Thiago Hersan and Radamés Ajna, as an opportunity to make different areas of research, like philosophy, media theory and robotics, open and accessible, and to develop a community of readers, thinkers and thingers! that mixes theory and making.
