Personal Details

Bio

Otto Plesner is a creative director and speaker working at the intersection of art, technology, and human innovation. His talks explore how creativity, emotion, and science can guide us through the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence, and how we are entering a new renaissance that will transform art, culture, entertainment, and society at large.

He has spoken on global stages such as LEAP (Riyadh), XPANSE (Abu Dhabi), CultTech (Vienna), Voices of Berlin, and the upcoming MWC Barcelona.

Through RenaiXance, Otto has collaborated with brands such as Steinway & Sons, Bitget, BMW, Celebrity Cruises, and others creating immersive experiences and creative concepts that bridge innovation, storytelling, and emotional design.

His recent works include Echoes of Eternity, an audiovisual show in Paris using brainwave-driven visuals, and The Art of Memory, a poetic project exploring Alzheimer’s, memory, and human connection.

In his talks, Otto explores how the shift from the Experience Economy to the Transformation Economy is redefining what people expect from art and entertainment, and how brands, creators, and organizations can stay ahead of the curve in an AI-driven era where audiences crave meaning, depth, and emotional resonance.

Through a blend of storytelling, design, and philosophical insight, Otto invites audiences to rethink what it means to be human in a world shaped by algorithms, and how creativity can become a catalyst for change.

The Creative Renaissance | Art, AI & the future of human evolution

We are entering a new cultural era where art, science, and artificial intelligence merge to redefine how we create, think, and relate to the world around us. In this talk, Otto explores how AI is not replacing human creativity, but accelerating a new renaissance, one driven by imagination, emotion, and human insight.

He unpacks how this shift will impact culture, entertainment, brands, and society at large, offering audiences a clear and inspiring vision of the future. This keynote is ideal for events focused on creativity, innovation, technology, and the changing landscape of human potential.

Art as a Catalyst for Change | Creativity, health & the transformation of human awareness

Art has the power to ignite conversation, inspire scientific curiosity, and change how we understand ourselves. In this keynote, Otto presents The Art of Memory, an immersive art project inspired by Alzheimer’s that opened new perspectives on memory, emotional health, and the fragility of the human mind.

Using this work as a central example, Otto explores how art can become a bridge between culture, neuroscience, wellness, and medical awareness. He discusses how storytelling and creativity can spark public engagement, support scientific research, and create movements around mental health, emotional wellbeing, and the human experience.

This talk is ideal for cultural festivals, health and wellness events, medical conferences, neuroscience gatherings, and organisations exploring how creativity can support human wellbeing and societal transformation.

Emotion as Technology | Why feeling is humanity’s greatest intelligence

In a world increasingly shaped by algorithms and automation, Otto explores why emotion is becoming our most powerful form of intelligence. Combining insights from neuroscience, creativity, and immersive storytelling, he reveals how emotional awareness enhances innovation, strengthens leadership, and deepens human connection both in culture and in business.

This talk helps audiences understand how emotions can guide decision-making, creativity, and wellbeing in an AI-driven world. It is especially relevant for wellness conferences, neuroscience events, leadership summits, creative gatherings, and organisations seeking to build more human-centered futures.
