The Ignition — Opening Gathering: Creative Hackathon - The New Human (Milan & Online)

​Global Opening of The New Human Creative Hackathon ​The New Human Creative Hackathon unfolds as one shared global experience across multiple cities and time zones. This is where the journey begins. We gather in Milan and online to meet, form teams, exchange ideas, and spark new directions. It’s the moment when possibility becomes intention. Not a briefing. A spark. From “what if” to “let’s build.” Schedule 5:00pm–5:30pm (Introduction): Welcome to CODAME, the ART+TECH Festival 2026, and The New Human Creative Hackathon. Meet the teams, discover the projects, understand the journey ahead. 5:30pm–6:30pm (The Spark): An open conversation around The New Human. Get to know one another. Share perspectives. Explore ideas. This is where teams begin to form — or where you find the one you’re meant to join. 6:30pm–7:00pm (Team Formation): Last call to join or complete a team. If you’re still looking — this is your moment. 7:00pm–8:00pm (Aperitivo & Connections): We slow down and continue the conversation. Meet the creators. Ask questions. Exchange ideas. Because sometimes the most important step in building the future happens over a drink — between strangers who just became collaborators. Learn more about the Creative Hackathon as part of the ART+TECH Festival 2026 at codame.com Let’s build the future — playfully, together — imagining The New Human in ten years (2036). There’s no single way to participate. You can build, imagine, design, mentor, organize, perform — or simply explore. Ideas sparked during the hackathon may evolve into full installations and experiences presented during Milano Art Week and Milano Design Week 2026, and later in San Francisco, Shanghai, and other cities around the world. If you’re ready to co-create, experiment, and push boundaries — join us and take your first step into shaping the next chapter of The New Human.
