- Love! That’s what we’re doing today, guys. Look at this stage. Look at this crowd.

I’m low-key so excited to finally see something in this place that isn’t about how everything’s mid because of AI. Love!

A group of scholars, artists, students, and workers gather for Symposium O: Love Past Apocalypse. They've come to ask us what love can still mean in the face of destruction and uncertainty.

It seems like nothing goes right in the modern search for love. Caught between love as a concept and love as action, we find ourselves trapped inside an event that refuses to become what we desire.

Together, we struggle with the refusal and create a shared experience.
