Further Reading is an interdisciplinary research format of the Design Department at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam. Advancing digitalization and new media formats are fundamentally changing reading habits, knowledge transfer and creative methods. The annual symposium series explores the future of reading and the design of texts across digital, analogue, immersive, and interactive environments. It is complemented by specialized courses, including seminars and workshops. Further Reading creates spaces for critical reflection and shaping the future of reading.
