In-house project —
In the IRDT project "Tech & Literature", employees of our institute regularly review books related to digitalisation, offering an insight into current trends and challenges in this area. In 2023, we are focusing particularly on works related to our annual theme "Digital Resilience".
The project is a continuation of our successful "Literary Autumn" from 2021, where we also dealt with the processing of digitalisation in literature. By further developing and specializing in the annual theme "Digital Resilience", we aim to provide an even deeper insight into the current challenges and trends related to digitalisation.
