winterLAB. Meeting on community and the critical use of technology

winterLAB is aimed at exchanging community work experiences that foster the creative use of technology and bring the new media for creation and production closer to the public.

Until 15 November 2015

The programme of presentations, round tables and workshops is aimed at analyzing from a critical standpoint the work carried out so far and what should be the next steps to take for disseminating these new ways and manners of doing and sharing.

The aim of the hands-on workshops is to disseminate maker and DIY culture among the general public and, at the same time, provide professionals with open source tools and techniques suitable for creative projects.

Inscription: the activities are open and free-of-charge.
