TECHNOLOGIES FOR HEALTHCARE
Saturday 7 & Sunday 8 November 2026
10am-5pm – exhibition open continuously
On the occasion of the next Scientastic event, which takes place on the weekend of 7 and 8 November 2026 on the EPFL campus, with a focus on health technologies, Archizoom invites you to take part in a range of activities linked to the exhibition Do Robots Dream of Construction Sites?
GUIDED TOURS
11am / 4pm – Do Robots Dream of Construction Sites? in French
Can we trust a robot on a building site? This guided tour explores what it means to build alongside increasingly capable machines, and how collaboration between humans and robots could affect our buildings, our trades and, by extension, our daily lives and health.
SOCIAL CONTRACT 4.0, MADELINE GANNON
10am-5pm – an interactive robotic installation by the artist Madeline Gannon
The robots that build our world do exactly what they are told, when they are told, where they are told. But that relationship is ending: physical AI is giving our machines the intelligence to explore our world for themselves. What should they do with their newfound curiosity? This installation explores a new social contract with autonomous, intelligent systems (4.0) — one built on convincing, not controlling, machines. As you approach, the machine may choose to interact with you, or it may be too busy having fun on its own. It gets to decide. This work asks what it means to share a world with technology whose trust we may need to earn first.
