Thank you for your attention!

Topics

Selected Questions:

- How changed our cultural tradition through the opportunities and risks of digitization?

- Once, what will remain of the cultural achievements that are produced

today in form of bits and bytes, if nothing is done to prevent the impending loss – and what are the conceivable cultural and social consequences?

- What are the most promissing strategies and technical ways to keep scientific data and digital art accessible and preserve them technically as well as semantically over long periods of time (>100 years)?

- What governmental and legal frameworks (in Germany and Europe) do we need to support and promote digital tradition?

- Are there any normative and ethical criteria to define what kinds of (digital) heritage should be passed on?
