“The material basis of media technologies – and books are only one example – is changing, for which historical perspectives might give not only comforting back-up (‘nothing is as permanent as change’) but also ideas to push the change forward.” (Jussi Parikka, 2012)
We can certainly talk about change; our present landscape is a space where the digital and physical have become synonymous, which many believe to be signaling the coming of an ontology-less future, through the accelerated disruption of cultural value. In this light old standards show their age and obsolescence in the face of the new, and with each new wave of informational overload we are further alienated by the system, that revolves around an economy of monetary circulation. All these factors come together to push a re-evaluation of identity and the human value. This brings to mind the genealogy of currency, articulated by Joseph Beuys during the discussion entitled What is money? : “Of course ‘Geld’ [‘money’] comes from ‘Gold’, same etymology. But it comes equally from ‘Geltung’ [‘validity’], meaning the value people fix based on their perception of a natural right. The word ‘Geltung’ is rooted in representations of a natural right, while the word ‘Gold’ is rooted in the economy of barter!” (Joseph Beuys, 2012).
In this light, Geltung [validity]: perception of a natural right brings together four artistic investigations that re-evaluate established methods of financial exchange bestowing new material values and identities to their subjects. In a landscape where monetary currency is pinnacle, the artists interrogate notions of personal and individual history, locality and its impact in identity and the framework that contains our cultural objects.
Diogo da Cruz’s work, WORDCOIN (2016 – Current), proposes the implementation of a new currency, that will give a literal value to each one’s speech. By creating The Bank for Argumentation, the costumer-museum-goer will have the opportunity to trust his or hers arguments to an institution that can save and trade them, giving the deserved and objective exposure to their ideas. Max Dovey presents Breath (BRH) (2017), a digital currency that is mined through human respiration. The installation combines breathing and micro-computers to mine, store and trade human breath as a virtual currency on the crypto-market(s). The market value of BRH is determined by the inflation created by respiratory miners who participate in the physical installation. Felicity Hammond’s artworks draws upon images from her own archive, using documents of the landscape and found images online; those of both existing and imagined future spaces. Hammond utilises particular motifs and structures that respond specifically to the digital representations found online of Dundee’s vast regeneration programme. For I keep forgetting I’ve been to Tokyo: GAIDEN (2017), Petra Szemán follows the virtual self through parallel and intersecting realities, along the departure-initiation-return structure of a hero’s journey. Drawing upon personal and/or constructed experiences, the work explores the idea of a non-localised identity that’s an archive of accumulated personal mythologies acquired from a multitude of realities.

In mid-May 2017, a values workshop was held as part of the Education for Justice (E4J) initiative in Panama.
The workshop focussed on some 233 students between pre-kindergarten and second grade, with the aim of promote values such as integrity and honesty, as well as the tools and guides needed to face obstacles, take decisions and act responsibly in diverse social contexts.
The protagonists of the educational material, Dogui and Dengoso, surprised the children with their visit, being received in each classroom with much affection.
After the workshop, Professor Griselda Pérez de Warren, Principal of the School, along with her 447 pupils participated in a cultural event on education in values. Students of each grade delighted the audience with their talent. Finally, the dogs of the National Police dog unit astonished everyone with their abilities, closing this enriching day with laughter and applause!
The NHS Values Summit brings together a diverse range of people and perspectives to create a greater understanding of how people’s differences, social status and cultural expectations can affect their experiences of health and care.
It challenges and inspires people to think about the role of ethical leadership in improving the health and wellbeing of local communities, staff and patients and how the NHS can increase the social value of its activities.
Welcoming representatives from health and social care, alongside more than 20 partners from the voluntary and community sector, this event (in Leeds, Yorkshire) was a template for future NHS Values Summits, which will be held twice a year in different locations across the country. Each event will explore a different theme relating to equality, health inequalities and human rights. The next gathering will take place in May 2013.

The need for transparent, value-based funding decisions has reached the field of prosthetics and orthotics. The challenges of properly allocating resources within limited healthcare budgets while also providing patients with appropriate state-of-the-art medical technology requires data based guidance. Significant efforts have been made in recent years to identify appropriate, valid, and reliable clinical outcomes capable of addressing these needs. The number of prosthetic clinics adopting routine documentation of clinical outcomes has increased significantly in recent years. In this symposium, we present examples of routine outcomes measurement in clinical practice and illustrate how the data collected can be used to demonstrate clinical value and support reimbursement efforts.

DRIVING BUSINESS VALUE THROUGH DESIGN INNOVATION
The deceptively simple maxim “good design is good business” belies the many challenges companies must grapple with when they resolve to embrace design as strategy. How do organizations create cultures and processes that consistently deliver “good design?” How do they measure and correlate investments in design with “good business,” especially during the early stages of the journey? This panel will highlight key levers for delivering sustainable innovation and examine new research proposing quantitative and qualitative metrics to measure design’s business value.

My central idea is value. I chose this concept, because my family is very important to me. Most people would say that they value their family and friends. But some people would say that they care for wealth, looks, religion and etc. I wanted to show that there are many things that people love if it's a good thing or a bad thing. I wanted to be more on the positive side, but I realized that not everything is all just happiness. So I changed a couple of my picture ideas and showed more of a darker side of what valuable means.
For my first photo, it shows religion or beliefs. I think that this works for my concept, because religious beliefs is something that some people put all of their time and effort in. It can affect how people live and how they act towards others and the environment.
For my second photo, I'm showing beauty. Many people around the world is insecure about how they looks, and how others see them from the outside. Makeup covers all of the physical marks on someone's face or body. Some people are consumed by makeup so much that they can't even go outside without makeup on, because they feel embarrassed or ugly.
My next photo shows the importance of pets. Pets can be very valuable to to a person or family. A pet can be like a best friend or a family member that you've never had. They comfort you and help you feel like your not alone. And when you have a pet, you create a special bond.
My fourth photo represents family. Family is one of the bigger values that people have. You can go to them when you are having a hard time, and count on them for anything. They're like your best friends and you have a lot of memorable memories together whether it's good or bad.
My last photo shows wealth. Individuals can be so focused on how much money they have, since they can buy anything that they desire. Some people would rather live with a lot of money than live with people around them. And in my photo it shows someone in a suit wearing a watch and having a lot of money. So I think that all of my photos fit for this project.
