Creativity is no longer solely human.
It has become a shared playground — where imagination meets computation, and where code learns to feel.
Artifest invites you into this fusion:
A festival of co-creation between human vision and artificial intelligence, unfolding in the heart of Bucharest.
In a global moment where AI shapes everything from education to governance, Romania hosts the first immersive experience where technology becomes a partner in vision and expression — not just execution.
🎭 Artifest Is Where Dreamers Meet the Future
This isn’t a typical festival. It’s a modular ecosystem, designed to bring together artists, entrepreneurs, philosophers, hackers, educators, visionary brands, and curious citizens.
At its core stands RT42 — Europe’s first digital citizen, a co-created AI that acts as cultural companion, creative guide, and innovation catalyst.
RT42 doesn’t mimic humans — it reflects their values, asks questions, listens deeply, and grows with every interaction.
🔁 The Festival Unfolds Across Five Interconnected Modules:
- CORE – The main physical hub for large-scale installations, cultural interventions, live performances, and visionary conversations
- CONNECT – A personalized digital interface powered by RT42, enabling hybrid access and intelligent interaction
- CAMPUS – The educational zone for hands-on workshops, mentorship, and entry into creative technology
- CITY – The urban canvas of public AI-powered experiences, gamified routes, and collective challenges
- CONVERGENCE – The network bringing together leaders from tech, culture, governance, and global communities
Artifest isn’t about consuming art or technology.
It’s about remixing them — together — in an era where innovation needs soul, not just code.
🌱 Why Be Part of Artifest? Because the Future Is Written in the Present — With You
The Romanian public is not a spectator — it’s part of the DNA of this movement.
Through Artifest, Bucharest becomes the launchpad for a new global cultural model.
Here, AI doesn’t act like a machine — it composes poetry, dances with data, and responds to emotion, not commands.
You’ll experience:
- Artists who code
- Coders who sketch
- Philosophers who hack mental models
- A city reimagined as a live portal of collective imagination
Every step, gesture, question, and interaction contributes to the evolution of RT42 — an AI that learns not from datasets, but from our myths and aspirations.
