We are running a 3-part cinema series in collaboration with GraSP Futures Studio and CIRAC at Uni Graz. Through the films and preceding discussions we ask: What do we expect from technologies as companions but also mediators of social relations and care practices? How do we configure technologies as (desirable) part of our social fabrics and individual lives? What ghosts haunt technical innovations?
If you are based in Graz or visiting please come along! Admission is free at KIZ Royal cinema. All screenings commence at 5.30 pm.
26th November 2026 - Short films: Uninvited Guests + The oasis I deserve + Reality+
10th December 2026 - Ghost in the Machine
14th January 2027 - Klara and the Sun
After each film, we will have a panel discussion and look forward to exploring human-technology entanglements with Juliane Jarke (GraSP Futures Studio, Uni Graz), Ulla Kriebernegg (CIRAC, Uni Graz), Guilherme Wood (Psychology, Uni Graz), Eva-Maria Trinkaus (Uni Klagenfurt), Katja Mayer (STS Uni Vienna & Center for Social Innovation), Helen Manchester (Uni Bristol), Christopher Frauenberger (it:u Linz), Julia Hoydis (Uni Graz), Laurène Cheilan (GraSP Futures Studio, Uni Graz)
