In the era of hyperconnectivity and uncanny intelligences, the thematic proposition \u201cWe Are Not Alone\u201d invites critical examination: What does encountering otherness mean today, whether it manifests as artificial intelligences, extraterrestrial beings, or even the unknown dimensions within ourselves? It encompasses everything beyond our perception, outside our comfort zone, provoking anxiety about losing control.<\/p>\r\n

The 2025 Bin\u00e1l\u00e9 in Budapest, through transformative participatory installations and provocative dialogues, seeks to collectively and constructively recalibrate human attitudes towards encountering the “alien.” At the same time, it confronts us with a striking paradox: despite humanity’s unprecedented interconnectedness, feelings of alienation and loneliness have perhaps never been more widespread.<\/p>\r\n

This year’s thematic focus of Bin\u00e1l\u00e9 can also be interpreted as a political statement: we are not alone, meaning we are not isolated. At a time when nationalism and xenophobia are resurging, this statement serves as a reminder that no nation or culture exists in isolation. The international and intercultural participation at the event\u2014with Hungarian and Mexican new-media artists alongside Japanese, German, Canadian, and American creators\u2014stands as a testament to this idea.<\/p>\r\n

Bin\u00e1l\u00e9 2025 is realized in collaboration with the experimental art collection 0xCollection and \u00d6rk\u00e9ny Istv\u00e1n Theatre. Curated by Viola Luk\u00e1cs and J\u00falia Neudold, with designs by M\u00e1t\u00e9 Serflek, animations by G\u00e1bor Kitzinger, and soundscapes by Rozi M\u00e1k\u00f3 shaping the exhibition experience.<\/p>\r\n

\u201cWe require each other in unexpected collaborations and combinations… We become-with each other or not at all\u2026 Alone… we succumb to despair.\u201d
