Niels Righolt, Managing Director at the Danish Centre for Arts & Interculture

What do we talk about, when we talk about cultural participation, culture as the game changer, innovation, inclusion, bringing new perspectives to the table … ? Participation for whom? In a time where cultural interaction and collaborative patterens are re:setting the stage and terms as co-creation, co-curation and cultural participation defines the success of arts projects and cultural institutions.

The six-hour seminar analyses how how one-way communication is no longer enough and how a deluge of new platforms, interactive elements and targeted individual messages has replaced the classical communication channels; how institutions are faced with new demands not only in terms of how they communicate but also in terms of what they communicate. Finally, it addresses the implications of this new environment in terms of audiences, cultural participation, co-creation and democracy. The impact on funding and management is also discussed.
