𖤓 Luminaries are beautiful hybrids that challenge and celebrate crossbreeding and experimental interdisciplinary collaborations. They take risks, cross boundaries and fuse genres, blending process and realism with subjectivity and commentary.

𖤓 Luminaries are key and active enzymatic players in our ongoing evolution.

𖤓 Luminaries play a decisive role in highlighting the latest crop of science cinema.

𖤓 Luminaries propose solutions and ideas to facilitate encounters, materialize collaborations, produce and disseminate work, always striving for equal access to opportunities, transparency and open-access.
