Virtual Weapons, Katharina Haverich, Berlinale, 2025, Konstantin Bez, Berlin School of VR

 

Part of berlin delegation at sxsw

Very excited for the Berlin School of VR to be part of the German delegation that Berlin Partner für Wirtschaft und Technologie GmbH will bring to SXSW Austin (Texas).

Last time SXSW and I were flirting is when I was shortlisted with my VR installation "Sequence of a Horse in Motion" in 2020.

selected for good media lab & good media pitch at dokumentale 2025 

From March 6th–8th, the Good Media Lab will bring the project teams together with experts from various fields to develop concrete strategies that go beyond filmmaking. This collaborative work will lay the foundation for the next major event – the Good Media Pitch taking place during Dokumentale on June 12th, where the projects will present their ideas to potential partners from media, business, politics, and civil society.

In addition, projects will have the chance to apply for impact funding through the Good Media Fund.    

 

Thank you for selecting "Brecht into the Metaverse"
