This chapter discusses questions of digitalization in the context of aesthetics, arts, and cultural education, and cultural sustainability. We first outline in what respect (post-)digitalization becomes relevant with regards to the UNESCO Sustainable Development Goals. (Post-) digitalization, we argue, must be understood as an integral part of aesthetics, arts, and cultural education, because it has already brought forth (new) cultural techniques relevant in the understanding of and thus the participation in one’s own culture and on a global scale. After introducing the concept of post-digitalization, we present two case studies from research projects within this research area Digitalization & Arts and Cultural Education, analyzing creative coding in online “learning ecologies” (Post-Digital Art Practices in Cultural Education) and the virtual character Hatsune Miku (Post-Internet Art(s) Education Research) respectively. Following their preliminary findings, we focus on collective creative practices as (new) post-digital cultural techniques and on distributed production effects that arise in post-digital settings. Questions of structure, of implicit power relations and hierarchy, and of new processes of subjectivation are addressed in particular. We argue that it is precisely aesthetics, arts, and cultural education that have the potential to contribute to how we not only understand (post-) digitality but also shape it towards cultural sustainability.
