07.09.2023 | Future Editor Forum

Common publication formats for scientific research, across the various disciplines, continue to be in the form of journals and textbooks. The possibilities of digital technologies and formats are hardly represented and utilized. The goal of this forum therefore, is the exchange of experiences between scientists who experience and wish to change the limits of current science communication.

This conference aims at questioning “myths of disruption”, though not (only) by disruptive means – exposing something as a myth, i.e., a lie – but by collecting and exploring the programs, narratives and utopias on which our disciplines, research subjects, and collaborative ideals rest and which they produce.

Keynotes by Adrian Daub and Kylie Crane.
