ZEG Amsterdam: Stories for the Day After Tomorrow
What if the most revolutionary act is understanding how power truly works?
From the European struggle against algorithmic control to the streets of Tbilisi where protesters face AI-powered surveillance cameras, this event brings together journalists, artists, technologists, activists and thinkers to explore how technology is rewriting the rules of power and what it means for the rest of us.
The event will confront the mythologies of tech innovation, mapping how European policymakers and Georgian street protesters alike navigate the global struggle against algorithmic authoritarianism, revealing a world being reimagined in real time.
Join us for an evening of aha moments, radical insights, and unexpected connections- a blueprint for reclaiming our collective agency in a world increasingly defined by invisible algorithms. There will be stories, music and great conversation about the day after tomorrow: where resistance isn't just about fighting, but about reimagining how technology can serve human dignity, and tools of control can become instruments of liberation.
Bring your questions and ideas: your voice is part of the conversation, and we invite you to help shape where the discussion goes.
Stay for ZEG Supra: After the main program, experience our twist on one of humanity’soldest storytelling traditions: a Georgian feast where delicious food is served alongside stories, connection, and dissent.
