Language Explorer, an interactive web platform by Google, is featured in a major exhibition at the Museum of Communication in Berlin. The tool visualizes the world's linguistic diversity using data from thousands of languages, building on the open-source Lingua Meta dataset. This initiative is part of Google's broader commitment to supporting underserved languages through projects like Project Vaani in India and Project Waxal in Africa.
By partnering with local organizations and native speakers, Google aims to preserve language vitality and ensure digital tools reflect authentic community voices. The exhibition, titled "Real Talk! Language. Power.
World.," runs through February 2028 in Berlin and September 2029 in Frankfurt, exploring how language shapes identity, society, and technology. The online companion is available starting November 6th, allowing global audiences to explore linguistic diversity remotely.
