Key Topic: Insights into the Importance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Higher Education
Given the advancements and impacts of AI technologies on various aspects of life—particularly in the field of higher education—it is essential for experts, university members, and interested individuals to come together to explore the opportunities and challenges of AI. By exchanging ideas and early experiences, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of AI applications in higher education and highlight their potential for the future. Our goal is to present and discuss AI applications already in use at universities—whether in research, teaching, or administration—or to critically reflect on their implications. We look forward to your contribution!
Jajaja, neeneeneee – Talking About Monkeys
A friendly monkey, made from a sock, observes us attentively, follows our gestures and communicates with a monkey counterpart on the monitor: the installation “Jajaja, neeneeneee – über Affen reden” creates a spontaneous, heart-warming connection between humans and stuffed monkeys. Charmingly inviting, this interaction works across cultures and generations and at the same time poses questions about overcoming distance: what makes us feel closeness?

Shapeshifting: Emotion – Empowerment through AI
What stories are told about us and how do we gain the power to interpret them? The installation “Shapeshifting: Emotion” addresses these questions and offers interactive approaches in the field of tension between humans and artificial intelligence. Visitors to the festival can become part of the work on site – and make their contribution to the idea of self-determined narration.
