Experimenta and Universidad de Palermo have revived the Design and Communication Dialogues series for 2026, featuring international online interviews with prominent design professionals. Coordinated by Marcelo Ghio, this initiative operates under the Faculty's Collaboration Program for Academic Development in Design and Communication. Sessions will be conducted via Zoom, each lasting approximately one hour, with recordings made available on the DC Conferences YouTube channel and Experimenta's digital platforms. The program offers free access with prior registration through the Faculty portal, supported by Experimenta's academic sponsorship without financial compensation. This edition includes a diverse schedule from April to July 2026, with participants including Rodrigo Sánchez, Pepe Cruz Novillo Jr, María José Gutierrez, Pablo Dávila, Felipe Ibáñez, Javier Rico Sesé, Luján Cambariere, and Analía Cervini. Topics range from design in the age of AI to craftsmanship in the Latin American paradigm. The series aims to foster academic development, research, and community building within design disciplines while providing visibility for professionals and publications. Experimenta's involvement aligns with its longstanding collaboration with the International Design Week in Palermo, which has been running for nearly two decades.
