The Bias Card Game is a tool to help uncover unconscious biases hidden in our daily lives. Through play, participants reflect on how biases arise in everyday products and services, and explore ways to address them. This interactive workshop provides a chance to raise awareness and engage in thoughtful discussion.

Matthew Gardiner
Matthew Gardiner’s artistic practice flows between digital and physical mediums, playing in the in-between. Sometimes experiments lead to the digitalisation of material phenomena and sometimes to the fabrication and programming of materials. The intersections, and emergent properties of the new object, field or device often reveal new inspirations and unexpected questions. Gardiner is currently Ars Electronica Futurelab’s Head of Art Science Research Strategies.
