The RIXC Art Science Festival 2022 under the title SPLINTERED REALITIES takes place in Riga and virtually. Media ubiquity, pandemic concerns, and social divisions, affected moreover by an ongoing war, have landed us in a world of splintered realities – to live with? to heal? to care? to learn from nature? We don't expect to provide answers. Instead, this year our festival aims to be a forum for revising the “splinters'' of our contemporary condition. We choose this perspective as our 'realism' is neither that of military strategists, nor that of cultural pessimists. Instead, ours is a desperate realism – in the spirit of Guattari's ecosophy, Latour's terrestrial coexistence, or Haraway's 'arts of living on a damaged planet'..
