DESCRIPTION:Mauro Durante\nViolinist\, Percussionist\, Composer \n\nIn Conv
 ersation with Drs. Stefano Santo Sabato and Bridget Algee\n\nTraditional m
 usic survives not by remaining unchanged\, but by evolving. Folk repertoir
 es endure because each generation reinterprets them—carrying forward cul
 tural memory while reshaping form and meaning for the present.\n\nIn this 
 conversation\, musician and composer Mauro Durante reflects on his creativ
 e process of rearranging centuries-old Mediterranean folk traditions into 
 contemporary musical language. His practice becomes a lens for a broader q
 uestion: how do humans preserve continuity across time while embracing tra
 nsformation? \n\nJoining the dialogue\, Stefano Santo Sabato and Bridget A
 lgee-Hewitt explore parallel challenges in AI and the humanities: how know
 ledge is transmitted\, how context is retained\, and what is gained—or l
 ost—when systems are built without cultural depth.\n\nBringing together 
 music\, technology\, and humanistic inquiry\, the event argues for a multi
 disciplinary\, top-down approach to AI design—one that begins with meani
 ng\, memory\, and the long arc of human experience. \n\nLight Lunch | 11:3
