About us
Carmentalia: The Future of Humanity and Technology is an interdisciplinary conference on the relationship between people, technology and the future. It grew out of two student research circles — Konwersatorium pod Kałamarnicą at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań and Axion at Wrocław University of Science and Technology.
Organising committee
Twelve students from Poznań and Wrocław responsible for preparing and running Carmentalia.
AMU — Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Faculty of Philosophy. WUST — Wrocław University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Information and Communication Technology.
Scientific board
The board oversees the academic level of the conference and reviews submitted abstracts. It deliberately spans philosophy and engineering: specialists in the philosophy of science, economics and logic sit alongside researchers with engineering backgrounds.

Konwersatorium pod Kałamarnicą
A section of the Student Philosophy Circle at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, and the initiator of Carmentalia.
Konwersatorium pod Kałamarnicą is a discussion section of the Student Philosophy Circle (SKF) at the Faculty of Philosophy, Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. The section conceived Carmentalia and runs it together with the Axion circle from Wrocław.
The conference is planned as a recurring event, to be repeated and scaled up in the following academic years.
Axion
A student research circle at Wrocław University of Science and Technology and organiser of Carmentalia.
Axion operates at the Faculty of Information and Communication Technology, Wrocław University of Science and Technology, based at Plac Grunwaldzki 11a in Wrocław. The circle organises Carmentalia and brings the engineering perspective to a conference rooted in philosophy — the premise being that in a period of rapid technological change, humanistic reflection has to go hand in hand with hard engineering knowledge.
Axion will also give a special group paper during the conference.

Carmentalia is organised by two student research circles, under honorary patronage and with the support of the academic media.
