The inspiration of our Member of the month March 2023: Anja Muschiol
On the basis of 700 recordings, the exhibition illuminates the development of the record as a medium for art from the post-war period to the present day. The panorama is expanded by sound works from the National Gallery's extensive collection, including room-filling sound installations and immersive media works. The exhibition is intended as a tribute to artists and vinyl enthusiasts, but also as documentation of the renewed attention paid to the record as a niche product and collector's item.

After the exhibition stage in Munich in January, the works of the French artist JR can be seen at the Gallerie d'Italia in Turin until 16th July. At the centre of his artistic activity are larger-than-life art interventions in public space that deal with the problems of migrants and refugees. The size makes the artworks interactive, while thematically raising questions about social fragility. JR's art is created with people for people, emphasises individual as well as societal roles, and ultimately seeks to answer the question of whether art can change the world.

Details on how to enter and the competition dates are available on the Awards Website.

The exhibition promises a juxtaposition of different design positions from numerous post-socialist countries. Both realised and visionary designs, dedicated to private and public space, offer new and surprising insights and might contribute to an overdue reassessment of global design history.
The exhibition focuses on the boom of future orientation between the 1950s and 1980s. Thanks to technological progress, the future was suddenly calculable through systematised innovations.
All according to the associated narrative in post-war modernism, which is still valid today: technological progress promotes social prosperity promotes happiness for all.

In addition to futuristic interiors for hotels, airports or one's own home, the exhibition also shows examples of visual communication for sports competitions and festivals in urban spaces, as well as reconstructions of visionary architecture and cybernetic living spaces.

During the event period until the 16th July, a curator's guided tour will be offered every second Thursday.

Tickets cost €8, or €4 for discounted tickets.

A recording of the talk is available on the UX Design Awards Youtube Channel.

For the third year in a row, the touring exhibition is a guest at the Circular Design Week Tirol. From May 5 to 17, the exhibition offers an ideal environment for workshops, impulse talks and info events on the topic of circular economy.

This year's Berlin Design Week is approaching. For the sixth edition of the festival, which will take place from 8 to 17 May, a large number of important representatives of the Berlin and international design scene will once again come together. Following the theme of Resilience, the festival once again focuses on design as an impulse for future-oriented change and the basis for creative futurability. The new exhibition and talk format "Design & Science" is intended to further enrich the important discourse between design, science and business.

A recording of the talk is available on the UX Design Awards Youtube Channel.

Unveil Founders:
Adi Ticho & Nivi Lehavi

With a background in design, Adi and Nivi are excited to find the intersection between creativity and technology while working with technology as a creative tool, and using creative thinking to challenge technology.

The two met while studying for a master's degree in Social Design at the Design Academy in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, and began working together, now based in Tel Aviv.

Unveil is a platform that presents digital art around the city using augmented reality technology. AR makes it possible to place art anywhere, easily, and create a new experience of art, and of discovering places and stories in the city.

A good design system is actively used and developed. This is the only way to ensure that it contributes optimally to the consistent design of products in the company and provides a guiding theme. Already the first step, the introduction and establishment of such a design system, is often a great challenge. In this webinar, Carina Völpel and Jenny Völpel, both Senior User Experience Consultants, provide clarification and shed light on questions relating to user feedback and awareness.

This year’s DGTF conference is dedicated to current developments around digital technologies and AI. We want to address the question of how design influences society and contributes to digital (in)justice. From inclusion, anti-discrimination and anti-sexism to privacy and digital colonialism, there are many issues that we as designers and researchers need to address to ensure a fair and just digital future. You can find more Information about the Event here.

We cannot determine the future. What we can train methodically, however, is our imagination, which enables us to think in a wide variety of scenarios. The Institute for the Future (IFTF) in Palo Alto, California, is the world's leading organisation for future research. Since 1968, it has been helping leaders better prepare for the future. Jeremias Schmitt, Head of Strategy and Transformation, and Helmut Ness, co-founder of Fuenfwerken, are now trained Future Foresight Coaches themselves. Early registration is recommended.
