CPPD podcastepisode "ERINNERUNGSFUTUR": Paneldiscussion „Practices of Remembrance in Digital Spaces“

This podcast episode is a recording of the panel discussion „Practices of Remembrance in Digital Spaces“ with Dr Jonas Fegert, Nhi Le and Susanne Siegert, moderated by Benjamin Fischer, which took place on 8 October 2025 as part of the CPPD festival ‘MEMORY MATTERS’ at OFFENER PROZESS – a documentation centre on the NSU complex in Chemnitz.Digitalisation opens up new possibilities for the culture of remembrance – from AI-supported interviews with contemporary witnesses to holographic encounters and globally accessible digital archives. At the same time, new challenges arise. As this year's European Capital of Culture, Chemnitz is a city of contrasts – characterised by lively diversity and, at the same time, by the challenges of a violent past. The Open Process – a documentation centre on the NSU complex – embodies this engagement with local history and offers a special setting for discussing the future of remembrance culture and exploring digital methods without compromising the integrity or significance of physical places of remembrance. The experts address the question of how digital methods can transform the culture of remembrance. They discuss both opportunities – such as new approaches to historical experiences or innovative communication formats – and risks, such as questions of authenticity, manipulation or the use of private platforms.***In ERINNERUNGSFUTUR, scholars, artists, intellectuals, and activists share their work and perspectives on cultures of remembrance in Germany and Europe. This series is part of the DialoguePerspectives e.V. podcast.***Speakers: Nhi Le, Dan Thy Nguyen, Vu Thanh Van, Vu Van Pham; Editorial team: Hannah Blumas, Angela Mani, Nihal Çalışır; Audio-Edit: Gal Yaron Mayersohn; Film Glitch by Snowflake ©2017 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial (3.0) license; Illustration: Rosa Viktoria Ahlers; Kurator*innen: Jo Frank, Johanna Korneli, Max Czollek | © 2025 DialoguePerspectives e.V. | http://www.cppdnetwork.com
