BEYOND Festival
FUTURE DESIGN – KARLSRUHE, GERMANY

In Future Design Artist create not only new Design but new Narratives for the Future BEYOND the Imitation of Life as we know it and resolving the antagonism between nature and technology.

Virtual realities and network-worlds might become part of human life similar to our dreams, which are a nightly routine, somehow separated from our daily lives obeying to different physical rules.

We need to confront the simple but chilling idea: human nature will be transformed in the 21st century because intelligence is able to uncouple from consciousness. We have to balance artificial intelligence with artistic intelligence.

This is a time in human history in which, equipped with an understanding of what is happening around us, we can predict and shape, rather than simply react to, seismic change.
