SciComm meets Commedy

Description

The project "SciComm meets Comedy" is testing a video format in which a comedian sheds light on digitalisation topics in a humorous way. The aim of the project is to investigate the role of humor in communicating science. It will analyse how humorous elements can promote the understanding of complex topics and arouse the interest of viewers. The research team will evaluate the reactions and feedback to the videos to find out how well humor works as a tool for communicating scientific content.
