Long called for, but still barely underway – what about the digital transformation of cultural institutions in Germany? While some still talk about digitisation as purely building software and hardware capacities, others have long since embraced the ongoing transformation and have begun to shape it in such a way that in future it will once again stand for access and agility, for sharing and participation, for commons and creation. What do governance and funding structures need to look like in order to help culture take the lead on the path to digitality as a transformed mindset? This will be discussed in a panel discussion with experts from the field of culture and digitalisation.
Location: kmh Kampnagel (Jarrestraße 20, Hamburg)
This event will be held in German. Please register here.
