Launch of the new focus

Intelligent machines, empathetic algorithms, brain implants, and augmented realities: The boundaries between humans and technology seem to be blurring more and more.

How will our understanding of what it means to be human change? Some see rapid technological development as the dawn of a golden age, while others fear the risks. So where should we exercise caution, and where is optimism warranted?

Futurium explores all of this in “On/Off Relationship”—its new thematic focus on the relationship between humans and technology.

Whether during the opening weekend or in the exhibition and the series of events launching this fall: Together with voices from science, politics, and civil society, the exhibition curators will discuss the future of the relationship between humans and machines with you.

Press play and become a living laboratory for all generations! Explore the new thematic focus through hands-on experiences: whether tinkering, marveling, or debating—here, technology is discovered, tested, and questioned together.

Creative formats and open, hands-on activities invite you to explore the theme of humans and technology, test ideas, and experience something new.

An exciting day full of “aha” moments, interactions, and lively conversations for the whole family!
