Can Venice be saved? Part 2

Can Venice really be saved? Moving from understanding to urgency, professor Andrea Rinaldo, author Kim Polman and researcher John Clippinger examine the limits of science, the role of values and the potential of new governance models. Venice becomes a mirror, reflecting a deeper question: how do we choose to protect what matters most?

Can Venice be saved? Part 1

Venice is more than a city: it is a living system. Professor Andrea Rinaldo, author Kim Polman and researcher John Clippinger explore the fragile balance that sustains the lagoon, where nature, engineering and human decisions constantly interact. A conversation that reframes Venice as a dynamic organism and a symbol of the challenges facing our world.

Quantum intelligence - Part 3

What changes if intelligence is fundamental to reality? In the final part of their conversation about Quantum intelligence, Riccardo Adami and Nassim Haramein are joined by philosopher Paco Calvo, expanding the conversation toward biology, cognition and the future of science. From scientific methods to emerging technologies, the discussion invites a deeper reflection on curiosity, discovery and the courage to question what we think we know.

Quantum intelligence - Part 2

Is consciousness part of the system itself? As the dialogue deepens, Riccardo Adami and Nassim Haramein explore the relationship between information and awareness. Between established science and theoretical frontiers, they confront a fundamental question: is consciousness something that emerges from the universe, or something that is woven into it? A tension between rigor and intuition that opens new perspectives on reality. Listen to Quantum intelligence - Part 2.

Quantum intelligence - Part 1

What if the universe is not just matter in motion, but information unfolding? In the opening episode of Season 2, physicist Riccardo Adami and researcher Nassim Haramein explore a deeper layer of reality. Moving between scientific rigor and visionary thinking, in the first part of the episode, they question classical assumptions and consider whether intelligence may be embedded in the very structure of space-time. A conversation - recorded live at Venezia - at the edge of science, where new questions begin.
