SNF Dialogues: Arts and humanity in the era of AI. Jean-Michel Jarre in conversation with Anna Kynthia Bousdoukou

Jean-Michel Jarre has long stood as one of the pioneering figures of electronic music, redefining the boundaries of live performance and large-scale audiovisual art. Over the course of his career, he has brought his work to unprecedented global audiences and achieved landmark creative milestones. 

Anna Kynthia Bousdoukou and the SNF Dialogues Initiative welcome Jean-Michel Jarre on the stage of SNF Nostos 2026, for a one-on-one discussion that seeks to explore the relationship between art, imagination, and creation in the contemporary world.  

This dialogue will reflect on how humans can preserve their intrinsic need to create in an era increasingly defined by artificial intelligence, while exploring the dimensions of ethos, understanding, and creativity at the heart of today’s cultural condition: what does it mean to be human in the age of intelligent machines?
