Scholar Aghasi Tadevosyan, Qanon teacher and professer Tsovinar Hovhannisyan, and lace-maker and teacher Armine Poghosyan discuss development and decline during this period, characteristics of the post-Soviet generation and Soviet heritage, and contrast Soviet "Palaces of Pioneers" with new post-Soviet creative tech hubs like TUMO and the newly opened COAF Smart Center. This session is presented by curator Satenik Mkrtchyan.
