Shape of the Future World
The three-year grant project Shape of the Future World (KEGA 010VŠVU-4/20210) brings new imaginative visions of the future for the Digital Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts and seeks the place of art in the creation of visualizations, models, utopias – for understanding the present.
An important part of the project is the knowledge transfer between educators of the Digital Arts platform
and international experts, whom we have invited into the Future Earth fellowship program.
