Intro

Manifesto, educational program and library about the encounter and human connections.

Whether a brief moment of eye contact or the first meeting with the love of your life, every form of encounter is a mystery, because you never know ahead of time who you will meet or how you will meet them.

Taking inspiration from writers, thinkers, and artists, this manifesto shares the theory and practice of “the (unexpected) encounter,” with the goal of creating awareness about the importance of encounters.
