From January to March 2017, the Kollektiv Neue Dringlichkeit will settle in at the Shedhalle and allow a constantly changing “Lab of the future” to arise: a public space of collective research, a proliferating coral reef of ideas and visions, and a futuristic festival space where we welcome another tomorrow.

The lab will open its doors on February 2, and the steadily growing spatial installation of maps, sketches, and found pieces is a walk-in space.

There will be reading circles, film evenings, performances, talks, and discussions with future researchers, science fiction authors, and cultural studies scholars.
