What's inside?

• In-depth exploration of questions on data ownership and digital freedom 
• A visual documentation of the Datami exhibition captured within a compilation of 24 artworks created in collaboration with visionary artists, scientists, and policymakers.
• Exclusive insights into the 'data tatami' concept 

DATAMI: a data tatami that restores our capacity to freely develop our expanding identities, but also a shelter and a refuge against the data deluge and digital transformation: ataraxia in a digital whirlwind, harbinger of a digital declaration of independence, constituent of a the Magna Carta of the Web.
 

As a transversal European Commission service, with the mission to provide science and knowledge for sound and robust EU policies today as well as in the near and distant future, it is the responsibility of the Joint Research Centre to think ahead and outside the box. With the rapid pace of change, the information overload, the looming digital transformation, the existence of societal challenges such as climate change, migration, fake news, political polarisation and growing culture wars now arriving in Europe too, the solution cannot be to carry on in the same way. The JRC builds on the understanding, that in our shape-shifting world, it must make a special effort to stay with the times and fulfil its mission
