There’s a traditional Russian proverb that speaks to the value of alliances, coalitions, and teamwork:
“Бери́сь дру́жно, не бу́дет гру́зно”
“If all of us take hold of it together, it won’t feel so heavy”
The IASAS is working diligently toward a grand collaboration in one of the world’s most captivating cities. Envision crisp air, leaves dappled in fall hues, as well as fewer tourists at Moscow’s remarkable museums and historical sites. Consider your many opportunities to hear the latest scientific findings on cross-modal perception, and to witness stunning art created by neurodivergent artists. Imagine a happy reunion with familiar colleagues, and a chance to make new friends within the synaesthesia community.
Autumn is one of the loveliest seasons to visit Moscow. Please join The International Association of Synaesthetes, Artists, and Scientists in October 2019 as we launch a series of events in beautiful Russia, including our Second Synaesthesia Symposium, hosted by Moscow State University of Psychology and Education.
The IASAS is delighted to partner with several exceptional organizations as we foster a grand collaboration celebrating the art and science of synaesthesia. We are honored to have the co-creative support and participation of:
Moscow State University of Psychology and Education
Moscow State Tchaikovsky Conservatory
Fundación Internacional Artecittà
United Kingdom Synesthesia Association
Russian Synesthesia Association
American Synesthesia Association
Additional collaborators will be announced in the coming months, along with information about participating speakers, presenters, events, and venues.
We look forward to greeting you in Moscow with a warm Здравствуйте! You can learn more ways to say “hello” in Russian here.
