Since the dawn of time, nature has been an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Many disciplines have drawn, and still draw, on its spontaneous beauty to nourish the inspiration necessary for creation.

Beautiful, generous and intelligent, nature offers unprecedented opportunities for innovation. Biomimicry, which involves drawing inspiration from the properties of the living world, is at the heart of many multi-disciplinary discussions. It is also a scientific approach in which inspiration from the remarkable properties of natural systems generates knowledge and innovation.

A number of multidisciplinary experts will be on hand to answer questions from the live audience:

  • Guillaume Bagnolini, PhD in philosophy of science, head of an agency specializing in science journalism and mediation;
  • Laurent Berger, lecturer at the Université Paul Valéry - Montpellier, head of the master's degree in live performance creation;
  • Caroline Chaplain, cultural mediator in charge of school audiences, guide-lecturer at the Musée Fabre ;
  • Microclimax, duo of architects/plasticians: Benjamin Jacquemet-Boutes, artist and architect, and Carolyn Wittendal, artist and designer.
