CPDP Culture Club

Join us in the Cinema, tucked under the roof at the very top of the venue — a quiet spot with comfy couches and room for big ideas. Up here, nestled within the architecture of our conference location, we’ll once again host the CPDP Culture Club: a temporary sanctuary to pause and immerse yourself in art, books, films, talks, and coffee — all thoughtfully woven into the main programme.

The Culture Club offers 18 curated slots for talks, keynotes, screenings, live radio via Avatar.fm, and, when possible, exhibitions — all programmed by the artistic team of Privacy Salon. Last year's edition marked the return of our book club sessions: Daniel Solove presented his new book and reflected on his favourite privacy titles of the past 50 years, while Maria Magierska led a discussion on a solarpunk novel. Our Artist Keynotes included YAO Qingmei, Aaajiao (Xu Wenkai), and Boris Shershenkov, who explored early Soviet-era machine vision and hearing systems and their resonance in contemporary Russia.
