Teaching and Learning Center
- Workshop
The Faculty is a training journey aimed at teachers and educators of any discipline, inviting them to engage both individually and collectively. Starting from practices related to the body and pleasure, we unlearn the productive structures and traditional school systems to collectively explore, through a logic of desire and imagination, possible metamorphoses of educational environments that can find space in a renewed daily life.

Saturday, January 11, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. | Feeling.
The mystery of reality with Alessandro Tollari, Doriana Crema and Aldo Torta This is how we live, learn, teach. There is no alternative to the world we are in. This is Reality. But what is Reality? And really aren't other ways, other worlds possible? The body knows things that lie at the edges of the light cone of rationality. How can we listen to those ineffable aspects of being in the world? What do our senses mysteriously whisper to us?
Saturday, Feb. 1, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. | Co-inhabiting.
Plurality and Difference with Alessandro Tollari, Doriana Crema and Aldo Torta In this subterranean dimension coexist numerous possibilities, multiple creatures in constant transformation that do not reject contradiction, but welcome it, allowing the compatibility of opposites. What forms of plurality take place in areas that we consider marginal, and which instead are the places of encounter and relationship?
Saturday, Feb. 15, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. |Errare.
The formulas of desire in the Dark Matters festival program with Alessandro Tollari, Doriana Crema and Aldo Torta and students from the School of Wish group In a world of unknowns, we orient ourselves with the stars of desire, and we welcome its disorder. It's about learning to wander: to err and wander, to find the unexpected. To then try to give names to our discoveries. It is then about inventing a new language, poetically creating magic formulas that can open up new worlds for us.
Saturday, March 8, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. | Enchanting.
Games and illusions with Alessandro Tollari, Doriana Crema and Aldo Torta and students from the School of Wish group If science aims at truth and reinforcing confidence in the solidity of our world, magic's task is to put back into play what seems taken for granted: wonder is an invitation to unlearn and then re-learn, in and out of school. Through a series of provocations, we try to explore the encroachments between true and false, between simulation and dissimulation, between absurd and perturbing, and then ponder a question: what if we grounded our practice of evaluating not on what a knowing is, in terms of truth, but on what a knowing does, in terms of vitality?
Saturday, April 5, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. | Transform.
Alchemy and Metamorphosis with Alessandro Tollari, Doriana Crema and Aldo Torta with Silvia Calderoni, actress and performer and Ilenia Caleo, performer, activist and researcher Learning to live is learning to transform and transform. How can we flesh out our imaginations, and activate them into transformative political actions? Through the experiments of Silvia Calderoni and Ilenia Caleo, linked to reflections on transfeminisms and new materialisms, we put ourselves in transit to mutate clothes-habits-habitats and rethink adolescence not as a phase to be overcome, but as a liquid condition, a constantly inconstant becoming that traverses all living.
Saturday, May 10, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. | Summoning.
Schools of Other Worlds with Alessandro Tollari, Doriana Crema and Aldo Torta and the students of the School of Wish group In the last meeting, we retrace our sensory epiphanies, the plurality of postures, magic formulas, illusionistic games, alchemical transformations, we look for analogies with the experiences of the School of Wish group of teenagers, we build together a (non)manual -made up of many questions and a few answers- that can give us indications of what the school of the future could be like: an alternative, desirable, magical, (im)possible school.
