The conditions of a hyper-accelerated society and culture will be discussed, focusing on the “projectification” of life, especially in science and research. The discussion will also address acceleration, speed and rhythm, and how these aspects relate to boredom (and its liminality) and sleep (and its lack).
Organiser: Institute of Philosophy, Czech Academy of Sciences.
Date and time: 10/10 | 10:00h.
Location: Zoom platform.
Social Design will facilitate an open debate on issues of time during the Urbanize Festival in Vienna. The festival is dedicated to the rhythms of the city, between history, everyday life and what is to come, between rhythms and cycles, between lines and pauses. From the time factor in planning processes, time horizons and economic cycles to timekeeping in everyday life, urbanize! 2025 invites you to conferences and debates, workshops and explorations of the city, films and artistic interventions with free admission.
