Art for Future: CO-IMAGINATIONS and CO-PRODUCTIONS for TOMORROW’S WORLD
Filmuniversity Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF (DE), Institute for Art and Innovation (DE)
Workshop - The zone that enables life and makes the planet unique is thinner than previously thought. How should we shape the future positively when conventional visions mainly depict hopeless and bleak dystopias? What we collectively want, what we can imagine, is strongly shaped by the media that surrounds us in our visual-addictive century. Can we imagine futures that serve the common good as well as the regeneration of the planet? How can we create synergies to work less, but be productive together?
Transmedia Storytelling: Camilla Plastic Ocean Plan - Exhibition Opening + Guided Tour Video
Filmuniversity Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF (DE)
Exhibition Opening + Guided Tour Video - The project started at Filmuniversity Babelsberg because the worldwide media often present environmental problems in a way that makes us feel gloomy and hopeless. Consequently, people start ignoring facts. However, what about the future we want to live in? Can’t we use the expertise of storytelling in movies to design pictures of a desirable world? New things are very often created by a combination of things that have never been combined before.

A Face or a Factory: Holey Surface
Aljaž Rudolf, Eva Smrekar (SI)
A Face or a Factory is a family, a corporation and a laboratory of faces, masks and new identities. By creating new personae based on harvesting DNA material and a 3D scan of each individual seller ― who in turn is offered a seat in the company, along with a specific share of its assets― the project aims to modulate different heteronyms ―their biographies, professions and precise function― in contemporary corporative capitalism.
Two Hands Performance
Two Hands is a combination of Korean traditional shamanism and contemporary media performance, raising the question of whether future technology can dominate the human mind and soul. Alluding to Roy Ascott's Technoetic Arts, which talks about the connection between technology and spiritual means, Two Hands focuses on the spiritual experience that will present a new possibility to expand the limits of technology.

Termination Shock (The Ends of Everythings)
Andy Gracie (UK/ES)
Termination Shock (The Ends of Everythings) is a triptych project building on parallel obsessions with cosmology and post-apocalyptic scenarios. As a reaction to current disaster rhetoric, the artist foregrounds the unavoidable and inescapable apocalypse of the absolute end. By studying the evolution of the Sun, the gravitational dynamics of our galaxies and the influence of dark matter, this project moves towards the end-of-the-Universe phenomenon known as "heat death".
