Speakers

The line-up for 2021

Christiaan Triebert

Visual Investigations of the digital world

Everywhere in our digital world, we can find signs of crimes committed by governments, individuals, and groups. OSINT, or open-source intelligence, is the practice of collecting information from published or otherwise publicly available sources. One of the world's leading investigators of these online trails is Christiaan Triebert of the New York Times Visual investigations team. Learn how Triebert uncovers the truth.

Anouk Wipprecht

Microcontrollers as Emotional Interface

What does fashion lack? "Microcontrollers" according to hi-tech fashion designer and Innovator Anouk Wipprecht. Wipprecht is a pioneer in the emerging field of "FashionTech"; a rare combination of fashion design combined with engineering, science and interaction/user experience design. With systems projected as 'host' systems on the human body, her designs move, breath, and react to the environment around them.

Jon Tai

Journeys through the Multiverse

Every moment, we look into the face of infinite possibility. And yet, every choice we make is another step down a single path that closes the doors to all the others. But what if we could see what's behind those doors? What if we could step through them? Jon Tai is a magician and storyteller, most recently performing an off-broadway production of “Missed Connections”, a play with magic conceived for intimate virtual experience.

David Mattin

The Worlds to Come

First, we made language. Now we will build worlds. The next step in our journey towards ever more sophisticated representations is to build immersive worlds that we can inhabit just as we do the world around us. David Mattin is the founder of New World Same Humans, a weekly newsletter on trends, technology, and society. He sits on the World Economic Forum's Global Future Council on Consumption. He is the author of the book Trend-Driven Innovation, published by Wiley.

How normal am I?

Anouk Kruithof

Universal tongue

A dance-conclave through the jungle of the internet, Universal Tongue shows 32 hours of mesmerizing video presenting 1000 dance styles from all over the world. The work of Anouk Kruithof is an investigation into the online representation of urgent societal themes. Kruithof extracts existing imagery from the digital sphere into her own idiosyncratic three-dimensional visual idiom. Kruithof is interested in how the human psychological condition is shifting in unstable times of systematic control, stress and chaos in the technologically mediated world.
