Education

We work with universities, art centres and educational organisations to develop educational programmes that foster a critical & creative exploration of technology. Artists, engineers, designers, researchers, makers and curious minds are invited to learn, share and create together.

Art + Science

Collaborative practices at the intersection of art and science open up dialogue on contemporary societal and environmental issues and inspire imagination that offers positive, sustainable alternatives for the future. We develop and support creative projects, artistic residencies and research, exhibitions and other cultural initiatives that support this vision.

Pedagogy

Active learning

We encourage a collaborative learning environment where participants can develop their skills through peer learning, demos and hands-on projects.

Critical thinking

Participants engage in collective research and discussions around real-world issues to take a critical look at technology and its impacts on society.

Open research

We constantly improve our contents based on the feedback of our learning community. The materials are shared open-source for anyone to use or contribute to.

Expertise

Curation

We design cultural programmes around the societal and environmental issues that artist-researchers address in their projects, in order to raise awareness and reach out to different audiences.

Production

We support artists and organisations seeking to adopt or develop an art-science approach. From conceptualisation to project completion, we are involved at every stage.

Documentation

We dissect the creative processes and complex levels of interpretation of projects at the intersection of art and science, in order to make them accessible to as many people as possible.
