This week we asked three questions to Peter, who is taking part in this year’s Transeuropa Festival as a panelist and creative contributor:

What will you share at TRANSEUROPA?

I’m going to talk about my current work on finding solutions to the problems coming out of globalisation. Being pro- or anti- globalisation is kind of useless, but looking at the current situation, we need to find ways to deal with those. Everything from ethical aspects of the right of people to move freely to the accountability of corporations. I want to look ahead and find solutions of tomorrow’s problems today, instead of being pro- or anti-today.
