About this film
Are we moving toward a world without truth? With the rise of social media, information bubbles and the possibilities of Deepfakes, we no longer live in a shared reality. How to proceed?
We are living in an "infocalypse", says British disinformation expert Nina Schick. In her book "Deepfakes and the Infocalypse - What You Urgently Need to Know", she outlines a society overwhelmed by too much information, where it is no longer possible to distinguish between "information" and "disinformation".
With the advent of social media, various groups in our society tend to retreat more and more into their own 'echo chambers.' In these they experience their own 'subjective truth.' This makes it increasingly difficult to reach a consensus on how the "real" world should be seen.
A new effective and influential step in the spread of dis- and misinformation is the rise of synthetic media.
The following speakers will appear in this episode: Nina Schick, Writer and Consultant Yori Ettema, Product designer Deep Memory David van den Berg, Clinical psychologist Henry Ajder, Philosopher Stephanie Lepp, Artist
