Gerald Bast in conversation with Philipp Blom about the challenges our society must meet
To be able to grasp the complexity of today’s societal challenges, we need multiple perspectives and methods. A critical approach to the present requires more than a singular perspective, it needs the interdisciplinary approach of artistic and scientific research to create a better understanding and come up with solutions for the future.
