Winners of the AI photo contest 'Utopia 2124'
C/O Berlin and IFA are pleased to present the works of the four winners of the AI photo contest as part of the Teens Workshop Utopia 2124, which took place from Jul 29–31 and Aug 1–3, 2024, at C/O Berlin Education. Under the guidance of professional workshop leaders, 28 teenagers aged 12–17 photographed their surroundings and used new Artificial Intelligence tools to create their personal visions of Utopia in 100 years.
Emiliana, 16 years
Green, clean urban spaces, free-roaming animals and robots, Berlin as a Cyber City with neon-lit night trains, solar panels on buses and rooftops, green-covered facades, or dreamlike, surreal image compositions with flying objects and glowing flamingos—there were no limits to the imagination and the possibilities for visual implementation.
Lilly, 16 years
The Utopia 2124 workshop offered the teens an opportunity to combine our present with future visions in a fun and experimental way, while discovering creative forms of expression through AI technologies.
Marie, 15 years
At the same time, they developed technological skills and critical thinking in dealing with new visual possibilities—skills that will be indispensable in the digital world of tomorrow. The jury—consisting of the workshop leaders, representatives from C/O Berlin, and IFA—selected four particularly outstanding works, which impressed with their creativity, thematic exploration, and technical realization.
