Lorenzo Calogero, Ph.D. student of the Complex Systems Laboratory, has been recognized as Outstanding Reviewer of 2024 for the IEEE Control Systems Letters (L-CSS).

This recognition is awarded every year to a small, selected group of referees who have stood out with high-quality reviews for papers submitted to the journal, demonstrating a high degree of commitment and a clear evidence of high technical ability in the field of automatic control.

At the MAXXI Museum in Rome, technology and creativity take center stage in the art installation “ASSENZAHAH ESSENZAHAH” by artist Riccardo Benassi, a finalist for the prestigious MAXXI BVLGARI PRIZE. The project was developed in collaboration with the Complex Systems Laboratory, under the supervision of Prof. Alessandro Rizzo, and the contribution of Edoardo Todde, PhD student.

Benassi’s installation integrates robotics into art. It features two robot dogs performing synchronized choreographies inside an elevator, accompanied by laser-projected text and a musical composition. This multimedia performance explores the relationship between artificial intelligence and human interaction, reflecting on how technology and robotics is transforming everyday life, in terms of communication, work, and emotions.
