New roles for concert halls in a technologized society
Since 2008, the Elbphilharmonie and the Körber Foundation have gathered the international community of music educators every two years to collectively explore the opportunities and challenges of music education work. The symposium »The Art of Music Education« (TAOME) deals with the central topics of our time. What does a technology-driven world mean for our community? What developmental psychological consequences for perception and reception are already foreseeable, for example in Generation Alpha?" What is the future of analog forms, analog experience such as live music? What opportunities does this present for concert halls and other venues? These and other questions will be addressed by TAOME VOl. IX.
With the rise of artificial intelligence, a high technology has reached the depths of society. And there is a growing sense of what it will be like to live in this new world. Will »thinking machines« be able to solve human problems – or will they themselves become a challenge to humanity? Whereas computers perform routine processes – and we live more in routines than we commonly believe – at lightning speed, the question of reserves for human thoughts and actions grow. Creativity and the arts are (still) considered such zones: Visual arts, music, theater – they all live from from human inventiveness, imaginativeness, and creativity. And there is something else: The unchanneled interpersonal encounter, the communal experience – so the unanimous agreement amongst researchers – can hardly be simulated by machines.
