Ideas for Shaping the Future of Democracy

In this format, you can develop your own ideas and visions for desirable futures. What do you demand from the democracy of tomorrow? Use the laser cutter to create spray paint stencils for making your demands visible in the real world. In a fictitious scenario, the focus is on democracy and AI applications with facial recognition. To protect your own identity from surveillance and facial recognition, you can design anti-facial-recognition masks and camouflage them with different patterns.

Our mentors will help you bring your ideas to life and show you how the laser cutter works. Helpful learning materials are available to support you.

The drop-in format is open and differs from traditional workshops. Our plan is for you to spend around 20 minutes in the Lab to get your first taste of the technology and the topic of the future. If it’s particularly busy, it might be the case that not all participants are able to try out all the interactive points. So be flexible and take the opportunity to get involved in the exciting topics on offer!
