Lecture: Frankenstein & the Future

What to know

What can a novel over 200 years old teach us about an era marked by artificial intelligence? Mary Shelley's Frankenstein from 1818 is not only a classic in world literature, but a story that has ever since shaped our ideas about humanity's relationship with technology, creativity and responsibility. In the presentation, Majken Overgaard explores how literature and art can expand our imagination and help us understand both the present and the possible futures we help shape. Majken Overgaard is an art historian and curator specializing in art and technology.
