Knowledge has always been dynamic: it changes in discursive exchange as well as in time. This dynamic is a prerequisite for every innovation, but at the same time it harbours the danger of losing what has once been achieved. For centuries, archives have been places that are supposed to prevent such a loss of knowledge. They originated where knowledge was primarily cultivated - for example in monasteries or cities. They are institutions that preserve culture. But they have always had to meet the media standards of their time - whether in the use of parchment or the cloud.

We would like to invite you to an evening with new impulses from times past:
