Digital Transformation is a work in progress that consists of interviews with scientists, artists, entrepreneurs, futurists, psychologists, authors and many other fascinating opinion makers in the United States, Europe, China, and Japan who speak about their views and hopes for the future. Technology offers amazing tools, many of them are useful, others less so, some even dangerous. Can we cope with ever faster rates of change, mental stress, and the socio-economic and geopolitical paradigm shifts that new technologies unwittingly bring about?

This documentary project started in 2017. Its purpose is to feature as many opinions about the digital future as possible to encourage a lively conversation. Interviews for this project take place with people who have strong thoughts about the economic and social impacts of technology in the digital age. So far, interviewees from Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, Santa Fe, Austin, Toronto, Bern, Zurich, London, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Taipei, Tokyo, and Sydney have participated.

Digital transformation and “deep tech” are multi-disciplinary topics—perhaps the most complex of our time. Artificial intelligence, blockchain technology, virtual reality, self-driving cars, drones, robots, or the Internet of Things are a mainstay in the news, but are we ready for the future? Do we have the necessary skills, intellectual and psychological, to take advantage of these new technologies? Or do these technologies drive us over the edge?

The purpose of this documentary film project is to start a conversation about the digital future and how humans fit in it.
