FUTURE DIALOGUES | Dialog 3: Future of Technology

Following the launch of the Future Dialogues on March 1, 2022, on the topic of business, UniKasselTransfer, Staatstheater Kassel and Scientists for Future - Kassel once again invite all citizens to a dialog between science, art and society. This time the topic is technology.

Is technology the answer to all our questions or the cause of many problems? From material sciences and machines to artificial intelligence - technology is characterized by rapid development, which we encounter in all areas of life. Whether ultra-light and water-repellent sportswear, mobile working during the Corona pandemic or wind power. Many successful approaches to solving problems are based on new technologies. But these solutions often also produce new problems, such as microplastics in the oceans, stress symptoms caused by communication overload or, as currently visible, economic dependencies due to internationally interconnected high-tech supply chains and energy networks.

What can technology actually do? How can it support us, and when do technologies confront us with social or even geopolitical problems? These and other questions will be addressed not only by the citizens but also by the following guests:
- Prof. Dr. phil. Jörn Lamla (University of Kassel)
- Jan-Philipp Stroscher (LOEWE-Center emergenCITY)
- Thorleifur Örn Arnasson (Director, Temple-Project of the Staatstheater Kassel)

The event will take place under the applicable corona rules.
