Dystopie/Utopie-Abend - Innovative Citizen Festival 2024

In the organizer's words:

From dystopia to utopia - shaping futures together

New methods, materials and technologies have always changed our environment and our lives. Almost all new developments have both advantages and disadvantages. Depending on how we use them and talk about them, they can give us hope or scare us. We have invited three scientists from very different fields to present their personal dystopias. Get ready for (entertaining) worst-case scenarios. But of course we don't want to stop there. Together and with AI support, we want to develop positive narratives and motivating utopias from these dystopias in order to start the weekend full of hope. Julia Krayer will be the moderator.

Julia Krayer is...
...herbivore in (obviously), biodesigner, science communicator and innovative citizen since the very beginning. Curiosity about simply everything, a love of science fiction and a certain amount of frustration about current developments drive her to counter the bad news that is supposedly lurking everywhere with something positive. Together with you and three scientists, she wants to make the world a little bit better, starting with the Innovative Citizen.
