About


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