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.

NFTs in the Art World - a Discourse Analysis

The interactive publication ‘Proof of Culture’ is dedicated to the discourse surrounding NFTs in the art world. It brings together 14 voices from the fields of art and blockchain and categorises them. At this point, NFTs serve as an example of the heated discussions on the assessment of so-called ‘emerging technologies’: New technologies that promise to significantly improve existing processes.

Bytes & Bridges: How is Digitalisation Changing a City?

Digital technologies have long been integrated into our everyday lives, promising efficiency and seamless processes. We often notice them only when disruptions occur, yet they continuously influence how we live together and shape our political system. The audio walk through Basel, developed and produced by Dezentrum, explores this impact across seven stations, making the pervasive presence of digitalisation in daily life visible.

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.

A shared vision of digital Switzerland 2030

Digitalization has been here for a long time. You can neither vote it out nor ignore it. But what does a digitalization that puts society at the centre look like? With the DigitalLabor, we travelled across Switzerland with the question: (How) do you want to digitize Switzerland?
