Founded and curated by Dags Vidulejs, the 'Future Man' festival is an interdisciplinary platform uniting scientists, philosophers, AI researchers, and contemporary artists around the question of civilization's trajectory over the next century.

In May and October–November 2025 at the historic VEF Culture Palace in Riga, 10 monumental paintings from the Divine Comedy cycle — including 'Butterflies and Spiders: Artificial Intelligence', 'Eternity Life of AI', and 'Avatar Farm' — stood as visual anchors for public debates on technology and human soul.
