At the Futurium Lab, we invite you to explore the interactive stations of "What the Future Wants" and uncover the hidden mechanisms behind the technologies that shape our daily lives.

Here, you can learn about and discuss how big tech companies influence our behavior, how biometric technologies work, which designs are purposefully crafted to capture our attention, and how systems of artificial intelligence function.

The interactive stations of "What the Future Wants (WTFW)" were developed by Tactical Tech and are designed to inspire you to actively shape the digital future.

The drop-in format is flexible: plan for about 20 minutes to gain initial insights and engage with these exciting topics.

These Futurium Lab sessions are part of the What the Future Wants (WTFW) – Comes to Berlin project co-funded by Deutsche Postcode Lotterie.
