The intersection of technology with society creates solutions but also intensifies social, political, and environmental crises. We work to enable individuals and communities to navigate these challenges and the impacts of digital technologies. Collaborating with an international network, we co-develop creative public interventions, exhibitions, resources, and training to advance understanding, build capacity, and promote critical thinking.
This public intervention and interactive experience invites visitors to reflect on how technology impacts their lives and society. Available in multiple formats, from large-scale exhibitions to low-cost self-print formats, it is easily used and adapted. It features printed and digital poster exhibitions, animations, apps, workshop curricula, and other assets in around 30 languages.
