This year&#8217;s Elevate Festival in Graz deals with this question, which this year has the motto TRANSITION.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With its interdisciplinary program of discourse, art and music, the Graz Elevate Festival has long since established itself as a place for critical-political discourse on future issues of democracy, fundamental rights and freedoms and the shaping of the necessary social-ecological change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, the festival motto TRANSITION forms the programmatic framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The political economist and transformation expert Maja G\u00f6pel researches economic concepts that could make it possible to establish socially just societies and sustainable economic systems. With her bestseller \u201cRethinking our world\u201d, she has also given important impetus to this discourse outside the scientific economic community<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sociologist Daniel G\u00f6rtz, aka Hanzi Freinacht, might be able to offer some thoughts on the question&nbsp;&nbsp; what the term \u201cmetamodern society\u201d might mean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>G\u00f6rtz is formulating a philosophical-ideological concept that focuses on the following questions: What is the unique role of mankind in the ecosystems of nature? How can better processes for the personal development of the individual be created? And finally: How can the mechanisms and modes of action of politics be adapted to an increasingly complex world?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>G\u00f6rtz formulates theses that may seem counterintuitive from a perspective of modernistic or postmodernistic point of view. This is precisely why it is all the more lively to discuss them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What changes do our societies need with regard to the mental health of people in our digital urban societies, which are increasingly dominated by crises, war, mass surveillance and the dissolution of privacy &#8211; this is the subject of a discussion with Indy Johar, who set up the field laboratory <em>Dark Matter<\/em> to think about radical redesign of the bureaucratic and institutional infrastructure of our cities, together with G\u00f6rtz and G\u00f6pel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the Elevate Festival, the Graz Schlo\u00dfberg will be shaped by the art installation \u201cDigital Dictatorships\u201d by Zara Alexandrova and Zoran Georgiev. With reference to the democratically completely uncontrollable social and economic power of the large social networks, the project, which is being implemented by the Elevate Festival in cooperation with the Institute for Art in Public Space Styria and the Kutlurvermittlung Steiermark, makes visible where the true dictatorships are to be found today , who, through their extensive possession of their users\u2019 personal data, have set up a system of algorithm-driven data totalitarianism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The festival&#8217;s music and VJ program ranges from <em>Caterina Barberini<\/em> to <em>DJ Durbin &amp; Yushh<\/em> to the Graz psych rock formation <em>Jigsaw<\/em> <em>Beggars<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Elevate Festival 2022<\/strong><br>Graz, various locations<br>13.07. \u2013 17.07. 2022<br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.elevate.at\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.elevate.at<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>13.07. \u2013 17.07. 2022 How does change work?
