How do you respond in a crisis? Join this journey of self-reflection, inspiration and exploration to find out how digital technologies influence the way how we get informed, make decisions and try to find solutions in crises.

Living in a time of global crisis, we know what the problems are – a warming climate, loss of biodiversity, pandemics, political polarisation – but rather than having a coordinated response, we witness ourselves getting further apart.

From the promises of artificial intelligence to the spread of conspiracy theories on social media platforms, digital technologies are seen as both a solution for our crises and also as a root cause. In what ways are technologies the lens through which we witness, investigate and understand our own reactions to crisis and the reactions of others?

To explore how people understand and respond to current global crises, Everything Will Be Fine, curated and co-produced by Tactical Tech, presents the work of over 50 artists, researchers and technologists around the world, including Paolo Cirio, Marjolijn Dijkman, Disnovation.org, Olalekan B. Jeyifous, Vladan Joler, Egor Kraft, Agnieszka Kurant, Sybille Neumeyer,  Liam Young, and more.  (((My goodness.)))
