Events/Openings

In the run-up to Berlin Science Week, the opening of STATE Studio marks the birth of a new, lively forum for public discourse on philosophical and ethical dimensions of the latest trends in research and innovation.

The kick-off Field Experiments exhibition evokes images of a society in which humans extend their lifespan through genome editing and in which intelligent machines are no longer just tools but companions. Field Experiments also explores the anticipated acceptance of novel synthetic-biological prototypes and the way machines see the world, shakes the human perspective on space and time and presents the faces of researchers and creatives whose interdisciplinary work drives change in art, technology, and science.
The mixed media exhibition displays both the work of artists and researchers, including Emilia Tikka, Marco Donnarumma, onformative, Michel Erler and
Veronika Natter in tandem with the artistic research project Farming the Uncanny Valley comprised of Natsai Audrey Chieza, Clemens Winkler, Paul Ferragut, Ann-Kristin Abel, Łukasz Stopczynski, Stefan Schwabe and Jannis Hülsen.
Further, films by Franz Milec and Timo Wright are presented in collaboration with Imagine Science Film Festival New York.
