An exhibition experience
In less than two decades, the numerical technologies have turned our working, consumption and leisure habits upside down, and have infiltrated every area of everyday life. More generally, they have contributed to create a new relationship with the world where, very often, the virtual does not substitute reality but enriches and broadens it through new interfaces and innovative means of communication.
‘How did our ancestors access to information before libraries and search engines? How do the current web’s search engines work? What upheavals does this numerical revolution have in store for us? How does the sharing of knowledge amongst nations encourage, even today, world peace? Does humanity enter in a new paradigm similar to that of the Renaissance?...’ []
Available in French/Dutch/English, the exhibition is an open window on in a dialogue with tomorrow’s technologies.
