Projects

Instead of just asking ourselves what kind of world we will live in in the future, we want to ask ourselves what this world should look like. Together with a wide variety of people, we want to formulate bold hypotheses about what desirable futures might look like - and translate these into objects, projects and exhibitions, thus making them tangible.

Digitalsalat Podcast

Digitalization can and will change all of our lives profoundly. The only question that remains is how. In our podcast "Digitalsalat" we try to answer this question and come up with not only probable but also desirable answers. On an ongoing basis, we get exciting guests in front of the microphone and dive with them into a wide variety of topics at the intersection of technology and society. The podcast is a collaboration between Dezentrum and Mercator Foundation Switzerland.
