The performance combines scientific content with electronic music, cinematic elements, and narrative formats. It offers a well-founded and engaging approach to questions of biodiversity and ecological sustainability. Global challenges such as climate change, species extinction, and resource scarcity require diverse scientific perspectives and innovative forms of communication, such as the new biodiversity show. Performative and audiovisual formats open up new avenues for knowledge transfer, make complexity accessible, and strengthen the motivation for personal engagement. Ecological issues are considered in their cultural, historical, social, and ethical dimensions and understood as part of key future topics.
"The format helps to imagine a different future."
Dominik Eulberg returns to his alma mater with the show. The event is a collaboration with the Bonn Student Union and the Faculty of Arts and Humanities. Also involved are the Vice-Rector for Sustainability, the Transfer Center enaCom, and the Vice-Dean for Research of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, Prof. Dr. Adrian Hermann: "This makes the show a joint project of science and university management for students and the public. Especially in light of complex crises," explains the Vice Dean, "we need spaces where we can imagine alternative futures. Formats like games—whether digital or analog—open up such spaces for experience and help us think beyond what seems to be the given."
