What can we learn from magic about the construction of digital media realities?
The shared experience of deception through the art of magic in our workshop enables participants to become aware of the emotional and cognitive mechanisms that, in addition to pure facts, play a central role in the communication of information and ultimately the construction of reality. In our workshop WHAT DO YOU SEE?, participants are encouraged to transfer this knowledge to the world of digital communication and information that they are already familiar with. In doing so, they actively learn how we play with expectations, reproduce thought patterns, serve prejudices and are subject to manipulation on a daily basis.
