Topic overview 2024
“Bioprinting – Throw yourself away, print yourself anew.”
A new form of self-optimization thanks to 3D printing and bio-ink? Officially, this is called “regenerative medicine”: organs and tissue are replaced or stimulated to heal themselves. This future may be closer than we think.
Topic overview 2023
“AI and Creativity – Impulse, Talk, Workshop”, 02.03.2023
The end of art, of creativity? We look at the positions of the individual, the AI creators and society. What is it about the new AI that has shaken IT companies and the creative scene worldwide in recent weeks? Hype, utopia, dystopia?
“Energy ethics – it’s not the heat pump that saves you!”, 22.06.2023
Waive or hope for technology? Save the climate or defiantly continue to consume? We get to the bottom of the zeitgeist and our psychological thinking confusions again. We show the challenges for people, companies and politics and find a common, responsible standpoint on our approach to energy.
Information accountability – we’re lying to you, get involved!, Sept. 28, 2023
Information is the fuel for reach, sales and power. We’re stuck in the media jungle, feverishly trying not to miss a thing or be shortchanged.
We read a headline halfway through and think we have the topic all figured out. The algorithms and generative AI feed us, and meanwhile the fourth estate in the state – as the press and broadcasting used to be called – has to earn its money through clickbaits.
Dystopia again? No. Don’t worry. Of course we have the solution ready:
Taking responsibility. Easy, actually. This time, we’re working on a first aid kit* for our personal media competence as well as our demands for companies, politics and society.
*Contents in our first aid kit:
🔸Critical thinking
🔸Methodological competence
🔸Communication competence
