Re. punk Salon: Art & Health & AI Series

​What is Re.punk? Re. punk is dedicated to empower women and is promoting a regenerative lifestyle with a distinctly punk and irreverent voice. We use experimental design, artificial intelligence, and data science to demystify the complex science behind chronic disease — with a focus on autoimmune conditions.

​The Art & Health & AI series demonstrates the power of artistic expression to communicate complex scientific research through technology. The emotions stirred by experiencing art may also serve as a catalyst for prevention and inspire engagement in health-promoting initiatives.

​What are salons? The Re. punk salons are informal gatherings in spaces that provide context for the topics we want to discuss during the salon. The salons are based on: Viennese salon in the 1920s that were intimate gathering, typically hosted in a private home, where artists, intellectuals, scientists, and writers met to exchange radical ideas across disciplines — blurring the boundaries between art, philosophy, politics, and science.

​Who should attend and what to expect? Our salons bring together artists, founders, creatives, chefs, farmers, athletes, food scientists, activists, financial advisors, investors, technologists, expert patients, and researchers to accelerate systemic change through a regenerative lifestyle and creative science.

​This salon is open to everyone — including men with partners navigating autoimmune conditions, those who believe in empowering women, and anyone who wants to support Re.punk's mission through their network or resources.

​Why this salon theme? An unbiased, ethical AI for the female immune system — built by us, not sold to us. Reclaim the code.
For decades, women's bodies have been understudied, women's symptoms dismissed, women's healthcare data left fragmented, siloed, or simply never collected at all. Now that gap is being fed straight into the machines that will run our future — every missing chart, every dismissed pain, every "we don't have data on that" hardening into bias at scale.

​So we're not asking for a seat at the table. We're building a new one. Women don't need to be AI's users — we need to be its creators: the ones writing the code, training the models, deciding what counts as knowledge in the first place. Unbiased. Ethical. Local. Ours. AI trained on real bodies, real cycles, real immune systems — not absence dressed up as neutrality.

​Why at Second Home?
With its lush plants, Second Home feels less like a coworking space and more like a tropical glasshouse. Creativity and technology hang in the air. After recently seeing a talk by a female healthtech founder there, it was clear: Second Home is the perfect setting for a conversation about AI.

​What is the range of topics we explore in our salons? Re. punk salons explore artificial intelligence, ethics & bias, speculative design, hybrid ecologies, biotechnology, women's health, autoimmune disease, food production systems, food as medicine, architecture & health, sports as therapy — and much more — all through the lens of women's empowerment.

​The ​Re. punk salons is a project by MOONDIAL, the non-profit PONY EARTH and the Re. punk collective. It is the brainchild of Dr. Sabine Seymour - the Regenerative Punk www.regenerativepunk.com.
