The Topic

Interactive exhibitions in the 21st Century.

EXPOCASE is currently focusing on the highly topical subject of “INTERACTIVITY” for media and haptic issues, as well as solutions for museums and exhibitions. It’s all about interaction and participation. For that purpose, EXPOCASE will involve, challenge and activate parties in a theoretical as well as practical manner and thus have a lasting impression on the professional discourse. Many questions have come up concerning the topic of “interactivity” and will be ascertained, phrased and discussed with each other within the EXPOCASE framework.

What does explorative acquirement mean? How do expositions and installations become “social labs”? How much subjectivity can technology take? Which criteria define “successful interaction”? How can expedient evaluation be carried out?
