Thank you to the participants – you made the event a success
Thank you 4500 times! Wasa Future Festival was once again a success beyond expectations and all of the event’s more than 200 speakers were well-received. During the week, we reached up to 3200 visitors and 1300 more on the stream. The most popular day in terms of number of participants was Thursday this year. All the themes of the event will now continue to live on as stream recordings, in post-event discussions and in working groups. If you haven’t already, it’s worth registering for our mailing list – this way you won’t accidentally be left out!
The University of Vaasa is an important partner of the Wasa Future Festival
The university’s program includes an international exhibition called Butterfly: glo-cal effects of data, energy and industry, an interactive new media exhibition at the interface of science and art. The unique art exhibition is based on the metaphor of the butterfly effect. It was created in collaboration with Deakin University, the Games Research Lab of the University of Tampere and Umeå University. The exhibition provides a thought-provoking and emotional journey into the intertwining dynamics of data, energy consumption and environmental impacts. Artists from Australia, Latvia and Sweden are participating. More about Butterfly: https://sites.uwasa.fi/butterfly/en
