 ===== How do we work? =====
-Our teaching approach focuses on preparing students for the complexities of an interconnected world by fostering critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and creativity. [[teaching:archive|Courses taught at the lab]] combine design, media, and technology, with a strong emphasis on human-centered design, hands-on prototyping and experiential learning. Students are guided through every stage of project development—from initial concepts and prototyping to production and management — ensuring a balance between theoretical understanding and practical application. Innovation in the lab follows two complementary pathways: On the one hand, we develop and apply new technologies to solve specific problems, on the other hand, we explore open-ended ideas without predefined purposes, allowing for unexpected breakthroughs, or sometimes also no breakthroughs at all. ;-) Sometimes we develop cool stuff but also do not know what it could be used for. This dual approach enables interdisciplinary exploration by dissolving the boundaries between design, technology, art, and science. Whether addressing pressing issues or uncovering unforeseen possibilities, our process equips students with the skills and mindset needed to drive innovation and tackle the challenges of the future.
