Designing Futures Societies with Technology

We will showcase products manufactured by organizations and creators presenting and/or participating in the International Conference, as well as works created by participants of the Intensive Sound Co-Creation Workshop “Resonant Bodies.”
How can our application of technology better improve the society in which we live? The examples showcased here provides a glimpse into how people with disabilities participate in society as “lead users,” how we can share our learnings and practices with each other, and how next-generation practitioners might render innovations toward a brighter, more inclusive future.

Archival Exhibits

Cultural Institutions and their Initiatives in Inclusivity
-What Creative can do for Society

We introduce initiatives carried out by three cultural facilities and a collective in the Asian region. The type and objectives of the facilities and collective introduced here differ. However, what they have in common is that they suggest new approaches in thinking about and challenging the paradigms of inclusivity in the highly complex and diversified society we inhabit. Their initiatives offer insights into how cultural facilities and artistic practices can address societal challenges and spearhead new social values for the future.
