PROJECT
TING, Technology and Democracy
Norsk Teknisk Museum, Olso (NO), 2014
On the occasion of the Norwegian Museum of Technology‘s 100th anniversary, the participatory exhibition TING was created, inviting visitors to explore and discuss the complex relationship between technology and democracy.
Surrounding the TING table, a 25 metre wide and 5 metre high shelf displays 100 objects from the museum’s permanent collection and is simultaneously a 180° projection surface.
Visitors explore the shelf with the interactive tablets or by placing the wooden cubes on the table, simultaneously bringing the objects to life and immersing themselves in the spirit and history of these technologies.
Eight controversial objects are put up for discussion and voting at the TING. Each of these revolutionary technologies is introduced by a short film, narratively illustrating their past, current and future possible impacts on democracy and society.
