Talks & Panels

Thu 17 – Sat 19 October 2024
HGK Basel & Freilager-Platz
Free Entry!

The public Talks & Panels program of MESH Festival, co-curated by members of IXDM Research, the Critical Media Lab and HyperWerk, revolves around the approaches to “(Re)Tooling the Future”. Tracing the (broken) links between early net cultures, metaverses, and the xtended realities of current geopolitics, the speakers and panelists revisit memory as a site of utopian futurity and potential “operating systems of a larger order” (Tara McPherson).

With keynotes and talks by Ruha Benjamin, Shaka McGlotten, Nelly Y. Pinkrah, Clemens Apprich, Paco Calvo and many more. All free and open to all.
