The CultTech Association is building a dynamic ecosystem where culture and technology unite to foster positive societal change. With significant advancements happening across all segments, each area deserves its own space for discussion and exploration.
The CultTech Summit serves as a platform for professional exchange, bringing innovative ideas and creative insights to the public.
The Summit’s Artistic Program will feature a diverse array of voices — from visual artists and theatre performers to academic and electronic musicians, educators, and scientists — demonstrating the broad scope of CultTech and reinforcing its role as a movement.
We would like to discuss how our bodies, through hearing, vision, smell, and touch, have imperceptibly transitioned to radical reformatting, driven by the “extensions” as defined by Marshall McLuhan.
What is happening to our sensory systems? Can we be sure that they still fully belong to us? How deeply have we (already) merged into the media-body, woven from digital control, biometrics, targeted content, the personal data economy, information storms, bubbles, and systems of media rewards? Can we separate the means of information transmission from the means of control? We invite you to test the extent of our bodies’ dissolution and the depth of their symbiotic integration into what is still referred to as media-and-information technologies.
Artists: Alexandra Dementieva, Aernoudt Jacobs, Where Dogs Run.
