Discover the fascinating journey of electrospinning, the technique behind creating ultrafine fibers using static electricity. This presentation by Alexandru Evanghelidis traces its origins from obscure experiments in the Middle Ages to its modern-day applications.

A thin thread of history, yet one that challenges us to reflect and meditate on the nature of technical and scientific forgetting and remembrance, a unique perspective on the cycles of technological discovery, loss, and revival.

Alexandru Evanghelidis is a researcher at INCDFM (National Institute for Research and Development of Materials Physics) in Măgurele, where he has been working for over a decade in the field of synthesis and characterization of functional nanomaterials. In his free time, and often beyond, he is an avid producer and consumer of social media and memes, frequently finding himself in clashes with the cultural environment.
