For the fifth time, we are opening our lab to the public as part of the Ars Electronica Festival. Visitors are invited to explore evolving processes, conversations, and collaborations that shape our work in crafting practices that hold space for new narratives, educational approaches, and connected artifacts to evolve. Installations, prototypes, and annotated experiments offer insight into ongoing inquiries and encourage engagement with research and researchers.
