Boom! Equal Access
Curator｜WANG Han-Fang
Boom! Equal Access extends from Boom! in Taiwan, a project initiated by the Goethe-Institut Taipei, Taiwan Contemporary Culture Lab (C-LAB), and Berlin-based Tactical Tech, in collaboration with local intergenerational learning platform Medium Well (七分熟).
Focusing on the experiences of seniors aged 65 and above, the exhibition explores how they navigate a rapidly digitalizing world—where they are among the most active internet users, yet often left behind by the speed of technological change.
Through art, design, workshops, and public engagement, Boom! Equal Access examines how individuals can participate, understand, and be heard in a society shaped by information technology. The exhibition turns the space into a temporary “public living room,” inviting audiences to experience the flow of information, listen to digital stories, and reflect on the logic behind data and trust.
By using art as a space for dialogue across generations and backgrounds, Boom! Equal Access reimagines the “digital” not just as technology, but as something deeply connected to our everyday and social lives.
