The Ars Electronica Futurelab team invites you to a tour of the Open Futurelab. We believe in the power of creativity to initiate social change and shape HOPEful visions for the future. Sometimes it can be hard work to reach a stage where HOPE is achievable.
To be hopeful in an impactful way, without falling into delusions, we need an account of the complexities and uncertainties that provide openings for collective power towards collective transformation. Artists employ various strategies to eliminate indifference and to ignite hope that moves us, at its best, to act.
Together with Masha Zolotova (RU), curator of the STARTS Exhibition, you will make in-depth exploration on the impressive and wide-ranging roles of artistic and creative communities, showcasing their potential to act as inspirations and a catalyst for creative solutions and alternative visions for our present and future.
