Envisioning Knowledge - The knowledge society and the new Media

A conference entitled Envisioning Knowledge - The knowledge society and the new Media will be held in Munich, Germany, on 3-4 February 1999. The conference will focus on the suggested paradigm shift from a text-based to an image-based transfer of knowledge. It will also present trend-setting methods of structuring and visualizing information and knowledge.

The conference will address the following topics:

- The knowledge of tomorrow: The interface between computer based information and knowledge generated in the brain as the cornerstones of modern society;
- Human intelligence as the driving force for constructing a human/machine interface;
- New tools change institutions: How image based knowledge transfer has changed basic requirements in research, culture, the economy and education;
- "The knowledge economy" needs intelligent tools for intelligent companies.

The conference, which will feature lectures, practical workshops and an exhibition, is being organised by the Academy of the Third Millennium.
