This residency period, we have welcome INTP friend Juan Giral, as well as Mathilde Defourneaux, Maya Tsur and Toyo Vignal.
All of them are either PhD students or recently elevated to doctor (in Toyo's case, congratulations!), all have an artistic inclination, and as well as personal projects, we shared drawing sessions, discussions about how to teach science through art, and an upcoming thesis chapter-turned-comic book.
Solène Pichereau (@sedeto), illustrator, graphic designer and singer, came to the INTP for a week in residence to create a traditionally animated clip for one of her songs.
She ran a drawing from life session with all our residents, and offered us a preview screening of her music video accompanied by live singing.

[Externally funded event, on invitation only]
Theme: We are interested in how philosophical concepts of purpose can be applied to, or enriched by, simplified mathematical models of a living system's organization. Among possible questions, we want to focus on the following:

- whether this concept is rightly applicable to any given system, how to characterize purposiveness (e.g. by organizational closure)
- whether purposiveness at one scale …
