Anger and inertia as paralysed rage – two emotions dominate our present, real and viral in the SM. Welcome to the w.w.w., the wild word web aka worldwide web of the angry. The law of the Wild West rules here, dominated by the revenge, retaliation and vigilante justice of WEB 2.0, also largely invented in the USA. In the Museum of Communication, we convene a court meeting after a Western showdown fit for a film. The witnesses: real victims of this system of self-justification consisting of bullying, shitstorms, cancel culture and body-shaming as well as its darker side of laziness, disinterest and lack of empathy.

With you as jurors and trial observers, with experts from science and the media as prosecutors, witnesses, experts and with music as a special guest, we clarify the machinations of the defendants called SM and draft a ‘basic law of a new digital world’.

DIGITAL SINS: EXCURSIONS INTO THE PURGATORY OF SOCIAL MEDIA AT THE MUSEUM FOR COMMUNICATION

What’s so bad about reaching for your smartphone with its posts, tweets and reels? Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn co-founder, explains: ‘Social networks are most successful when they trigger one of the seven deadly sins’. What? We want to know more about that! With experts, users, music, theatre and an enterprising audience, we’re off into the realm of knowledge. Ahead of us are audio walks, a western showdown with a court hearing and much more.
