The Out of the Box Programme – Turning Crisis Into Opportunity

Is crisis something that happens to us, or something we can work with? And is the current shift in the media landscape a global crisis, or a moment of change? Instability can drive reinvention when approached with intent.

In this Workshop Program, Oliver Czeslik and Kathrin Brunner (mYndstorm Productions) guide you Out of the Box – Turning Crisis Into Opportunity, a community program combining an Intro, a 1.5 Day Workshop and a mentoring phase. Drawing on work across media, innovation and emerging tech, we look at what happens when structures begin to crack, why that opens up new possibilities, and how to position yourself within them.

The workshop focuses on how work in the media industry is changing under pressure from AI, consolidation and changing structures.

We take a break, surrounded by beautiful nature just outside of Munich, and discuss how the nature of work is shifting, and explore together how existing skills can be adapted and applied in new contexts to build resilience and move into emerging spaces between traditional markets.
On Day 2, we embark on a guided journey into the future together - in a guided sound meditation by Special Guest Carole Campbell.
The quiet of St. Ägidius, a Romanian church from 1178, will welcome us and widen our perspective on time.
