Outside the Box - scientific and artistic narratives in the field of tension between humanism, feminism and digital data
At the conclusion of the Open Studio Days, a discussion round will ask questions about being human in the advanced digitized information society. There are scientists and artists who speak critically about their own actions regarding the self-concept of an increasingly technocratic world. What remains of humanism and feminism in the face of algorithms (co-)determined life and work? Can the individual person do justice to the temporality of the market and the financial world at all? Does art possibly have the potential to intervene here and can it create ways out in favor of individual self-development possibilities? Or are the existing systems (financial world, maker scene in the Silicon Valley, science business, art market, ...) largely decoupled from each other and from artistic ambitions? What role do art
and science play as instances of shaping society today with the increased influence of digital worlds?
