Program Description

Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden, launched in 2019, was initiated with the goal of exploring and elucidating the complex relationships among humans, machines, technology and the world from the perspective of the arts, humanities and social sciences. The Lab consists of the two pillars Schaufler Kolleg@TU Dresden (a research training group) and Schaufler Residency@TU Dresden. The first funding phase (2020-2024) focused on "Artificial Intelligence as factor and consequence of societal and cultural change". The resident artists were Christian Kosmas Mayer (2020), Anton Ginzburg (2021), Esmeralda Conde Ruiz (2022) and Rosa Barba (2023/24). In the second funding phase of the Lab (2024–2027) the central topic is “Data↔Worlds. Sociotechnical and cultural syntheses of new realities“. Fellows from the humanities and social sciences and the resident artists will conduct research on this theme in close exchange with scientists from the university's STEM disciplines.
