DWG Symposium in Berlin

Save-the-Date for our AI Symposium in Berlin

On 04.07.2024, we will be hosting this year’s DWG Symposium in our Kunsthalla.

This year, the 12th Efficiency Day of the DWG-German Advertising Research Association is fully dedicated to digital innovation and transformation.
AI tools have gained in importance in the last few years and are already an established part of everyday life. Although AI often leaves us amazed, it is still irritating or frightening for people in many situations, as it opens new doors and brings with it a new future.

In any case, it is clear that AI will change our perception of brands, market communication and the construction of reality.
But to what extent? And what is the best way for companies to prepare for this change? These and other exciting questions will be discussed and answered at this year’s symposium in Berlin. Join us when the speakers present their ideas on the future use of AI.

Learn more about the story of the DWG-poster and the art project of Media Artist Dennis Rudolph!

DennisRudolph_2022

“The creative process made it possible to stage the people completely decentrally in 3D software and set up the lighting without any of the participants actually having to be present. I like the glitches created by the AI because they show the digital process that these portraits have gone through.”

_Dennis Rudolph, Media Artist

This poster was commissioned by CEO Michael Schiessl, who felt that the announcement of the DWG AI Symposium needed an aesthetic that reflected the topic of the conference.

Artist Dennis Rudolph uploaded photos of the speakers to an online AI application, where they were transformed into 3D portraits. The composition of the title poster was created using 3D software.

After consultation with everyone involved and some feedback on corporate identity from the DWG, the portrait of one of the speakers was replaced – he said he didn’t recognize himself. His new AI edition looked much older and sterner, but was also much more like him. It seemed like the AI only enhanced certain features that stood out.
