Stories in motion: How narratives shape culture, society and the future
Stories do not sit still. They move across film, music, immersive work and public discourse, shaped as much by how they are experienced and shared as by those who create them.
How do stories travel, and what do they do once they arrive? As narratives move between audiences, platforms and public debate, they begin to shape perception, frame issues and influence how people relate to each other and to the world around them.
From social cohesion and civic participation to environmental awareness and responsibility, the session considers how storytelling can support more conscious ways of thinking and acting, and how it connects creative practice with wider questions about the kind of future we are building.
At the centre of the conversation is Oliver Czeslik, an award-winning creator working across XR, theatre and film. His work spans internationally staged plays, including productions directed by Philip Seymour Hoffman, feature films, and award-winning immersive projects, with performances at leading venues such as Schaubühne and Volksbühne Berlin.
Moderated by Georges Perot
