Don’t judge. Welcome uncertainty. Dare to be wrong. These are some of the key phrases that make up the manifesto for Stockholm conference Gather. It’s a meeting point for tech, science and innovation, business, culture and creativity, that more than anything wants us to ”question, collaborate and think differently”. They do this by assembling over 50 interesting speakers in various groundbreaking fields, and serving them on a silver platter to the curiously inclined in Sickla. We look into the future with their help a couple of pages into this issue. While Gather might be a portal into the minds of the brightest people within some futuristic subjects, another big event – the Stockholm Fringe Festival, is a portal into the weird and wonderful world of alternative stage art. A “melting pot for artistic freedom” as they so eloquently put it themselves. This year is the tenth anniversary of the festival, so we decided it was time to round up the founders to hear about their decade-long journey and this anniversary edition, an edition solely featuring works from female, non-binary and transgender artists. They explain the reasons for stepping away from their usual booking policy and a lot more in our five-page-long feature. Enjoy and make sure to visit both events in September.
