The Glass Room is a public intervention that aims to demystify technology through immersive, thought-provoking, self-learning exhibitions. The Glass Room began as a large scale exhibition, traveling from Berlin to New York, London and San Francisco between 2016 and 2019. Each Glass Room took the form of a sleek tech shop, but where nothing was for sale. Instead, visitors found a place where they could freely and critically discuss technology. Artworks presented explored data, privacy and our relationship to the technologies and platforms which have become so commonplace in our everyday lives.

A growing need for public interventions and information about technology led Tactical Tech to design the Glass Room Community Edition – a lightweight, pop-up exhibition that can be shipped worldwide to community spaces, schools, libraries and festivals. We support our partners in creating critical spaces where communities around the world can join the global discussion around privacy, data and the impacts of technology on society.
We work closely with the youth initiative What the Future Wants, which has adapted and made the contents of The Glass Room Community Edition a thought-provoking experience for visitor of all ages. The Data Detox Kit, in both print and online formats, provides visitors simple tip and tricks, so they can begin to take control of their privacy, security, and well being.
