How does digitalization affect the personality development of young people? This question is being explored by a project of the digital elementary school St. Leonhard together with the artist duo Lauma.Launisch.

Pupils deal with the topic of digitization and the effects on their personal development in a playful and artistic way: in workshops in the “Digital Lab” a new prototypical school ambience built in the digital elementary, and secondary school St. Leonhard, the pupils explore their future aspirations. Under the motto “Culture creates an urban future,” they are invited to participate directly in the process of shaping society. This is made possible through workshops with guest lecturers, with their own creative video works and through a temporary artistic installation, which is realized on the school forecourt and on the facade.

The results from the workshops will be presented and discussed publicly at an event on the school forecourt with large-screen projections. The documentation will take place via web platforms. The artist duo Luma.Launisch will turn the contributions into a final cinematic work of art.
