Exhibition: twentyforty – Utopias for a Digital Society

Die twentyforty Ausstellung befasst sich mit dreizehn Utopien für die digitale Gesellschaft, verfasst von visionären Wissenschaftler*innen aus verschiedenen Fachgebieten. Sie wirft folgende Fragen auf: Wie wird die Welt in zwei Jahrzehnten aussehen? Wie werden wir im Jahr 2040 arbeiten, leben, lieben und lernen? Die Ausstellung findet auf Englisch statt, eine Anmeldung wird empfohlen.

The twentyforty exhibition explores the digital utopias of thirteen visionary researchers from different fields of expertise. It asks: What will the world look like two decades from now? How will we work, live, love, learn in twentyforty? Digital technologies have changed our lives significantly in the last twenty years. With the looming rise of AI, virtual reality and data ubiquity it seems evident that the biggest changes still lie ahead of us. What will be next? Beyond the stories themselves the exhibition features audio-visual experiments in science communication and knowledge transfer. Visitors will be invited to dive into future visions of the digital society based on the expertise of the thirteen researchers and engage with pressing questions about our lives twenty years from now.
