What a weekend in Munich at DIVE’25 for WDC 2026. we explored what a design policy should look like. Key takeaways:

– Theory matters, but shouldn’t paralyze action
– Design must be seen as a strategic tool across sectors

Art and design shape our perception - but what role do they play in democratic processes? In the panel "Can art do revolution?" at the KfW Stiftung, I spoke to the artist Hamlet Lavastida about how visual language and state narratives shape historiography. Moderated perfectly by Aisha Camara 💚🖤
