Train Talks on Artificial Intelligence and Streetart


Start date: 21/06/2019
Start time: 04:00 pm
End time: 09:00 pm
Organizer: Nexus Experiments

From the 1st of June 2019 to 30. of November 2019, a city train carrying the artwork "Ansichtssache" will run on the tracks of the Freiburger Verkehrs AG. On  21.06 .2019, you will have the opportunity to talk to the scientists and artists  about AI research and street art during an event in the "AI tram". Get on board and discuss with us! Short moderated discussions with Wolfram Burgard and other scientists from computer science and robotics, followed by open question rounds, enable you to learn more about the current state of the art, but also to discuss social aspects of this technology.

The discussions will be moderated by Philipp Schrögel, freelance science communicator and co-initiator of the project "Stadtwandforschung" ("City Wall Research"): On the occasion of the Science Year 2019 - Artificial Intelligence, street art artists will be creating murals together with AI researchers of the University of Freiburg, thus bringing art and science to the city centre of Freiburg. The science/art project Nexus Experiments of the University of Freiburg and the kulturaggregat e.V. offer the chance to learn, discuss and participate at events on the topic of artificial intelligence in the course of 2019. The campaign was initiated with the additional support of the international robotics conference Robotics Science and Systems, which will take place from 22 to 26 June in Freiburg.
