How long can you go without looking at your phone? Minutes? Seconds? Milliseconds? This DLD Munich talk explores our lack of attention span in today’s digital culture – and what it does to bodies and minds. Klaus Biesenbach, the Director of both the Neue Nationalgalerie and the upcoming Museum of the 20th Century in Berlin, discusses these issues on a personal level but also puts them in perspective with the help of art and culture.
