TTTlabs are highly speculative hybrid events of intense co-creation, co-education and co-development set in the Ionian Islands. TTTlabs are multi-person field work experiences that allow time and focus for in-depth play with concepts and practices of: Developmental Biology & Deprogramming, New Reproductive Technology & Rewilding, Bird Watching & Rehabilitation, Human Germline Genetic Editing & Ferality, Performance Art & Nonhuman Enrichment. “BioFeral.BeachCamp”, the first TTTlab, will be on the Island of Corfu, Greece. The emphasis will be on Bioart as fundamental research (also known as curiosity based research) including bioart labs as ‘ethics in action’. Focused on hacking research methods with wetlab Bioart, this camp includes creative video and sonic arts mash-ups, novel apparatus prototyping and bio-ferality experiments in performance art.
https://inarts.eu/The ArtLabo Retreat is bi-annual week-long international gathering of the extended ArtLabo Network. It takes place at the Island of Batz, off the Roscoff coast (Bretagne, FR). Its focus is on sharing research-creation practices in the field of marine biology, biomaterials, sustainable food, upcycling & circular economy, open source technology, video & sound arts and media publication.
The ArtLabo Retreat will invite national and international guests to mentor workshops with a strong focus on: bioart practices related to biology of evolution and marine biology; edible algae ethno-botany, foraging & cooking; upcycling and biomaterials; hypermedia practices related to those fields (interviews, web radio, web edition, filming & video editing).
https://www.makery.info/en/2020/09/22/artlabo-retreat-summer-camp-symbiotique-a-lile-de-batz/PIFcamp is a 7-day hacker/maker-base set in pristine Alpine nature in close proximity of Soča river, where art, technology and knowledge meet. The camp is an immersion event, where media, video and sound artists, theorists, programmers, engineers and scientists work together on themes like DIY electronics, modular synthesis, wearable electronics, e-textiles, wildfood, citizen science and environmental studies. Around 60 participants of the camp take the leading part in holding workshops, practical field trips, theoretical lectures and on-sight briefings and actively participate in the development of various DIY/DIWO projects, while collaborating together in a creative working environment. In addition, all the projects are thoroughly documented and published online.
https://pif.campFocused on intersection of Art, Biology and the Environment innovative summer course offers unique opportunities to visual artists and non-specialists to acquire theoretical and practical skills in biological and environmental sciences in connection to the visual arts. The Summer School explores the interdisciplinary relationship between art, life and environmental sciences through hands-on exercises, combining theory and practice in an informal environment, e.g.: seminars, debates, visits, and the creation of artworks with biological media.
The program offers an intensive, experimental and shared learning space, in which artists in residence, experts, scientists and attendees can generate transversal knowledge, project prototypes or replicable protocols.
https://cultivamoscultura.com/2022/01/19/summer-school-2022/Catch is Elsinore’s city centre for creative education and innovation operating at the intersection of art, technology, and design. The overall aim of the interdisciplinary camp is to empower its participants to form new technological futures by exploring opportunities within art, science, technology & entrepreneurship. The participants will work in cross-disciplinary teams consisting of invited artists, designers, hackers, makers, company representatives and students, to develop and test their ideas and thoughts of a sustainable future.
Camp focus is on new ecological materials and means of production stemming from new technologies. Participants will investigate whether it is possible to develop novel structures or alternatives to contemporary ways of organizing, production and consumption; and how the artistic approach could be implemented into, extend, or disrupt production, distribution, and the financial processes.
https://www.catch.dk/summercamp-soft-electronics/Field_Notes is an art&science field laboratory organized by the Bioart Society at the Kilpisjärvi Biological Station of the Univeristy of Helsinki in Sapmi/Finland. Two groups with 7 members will work for two weeks in the sub-Arctic Lapland to develop, test and evaluate specific interdisciplinary approaches on questions in relation to biology, ecology and life sciences. During two weeks the groups will approach its questions from different angles. They will organize themselves in work groups, teams, think tanks, and workshops. They will carry out their work in their related fields, as well as have common activities of lectures,presentations and feedback sessions. Expected results include abstracts, anecdotes, anecdata, artefacts, collaborations, data, documentation, experience, experiments, future workshops, field notes, friends, drawings, hard and software, ideas, knowledge, photos, presentations, prototypes, recordings, skills, sketches, sounds, projects, photos, videos and more.
The theme of Field_Notes 2023 is The North Escaping and will focus to explore the current and approaching transformations in the North.
https://bioartsociety.fi/Electric Wonderland is all about DIY explorers, curiosities and open labs in nature. We will delve into the imaginary realms of co-creation by ‘following the white rabbit’ in order to expand the knowledge transfer of high-tech and low-tech merged together into an interdisciplinary laboratory in nature.
The camp will thematise hybrid forms of expressions with a lot of workshops from DIY music electronic instruments, synths and devices, smart city technology, DIY photography devices, biohacking, design thinking, DIY kitchen lab, movable objects and mobiles, eTextiles, robotics, paper art craft, biomimetics, citizen energy communities, solar energy, renewable energies, climate changes and recycling objects, all in the context of citizen science.
People will have an opportunity to join the workshops and lectures as they wish, bring their own projects for further development, give a free style lecture, wander around the woods and lakes to explore the nature, hanging around the camp, maintain the camping fire in the middle of the camp, partaking guerilla workshops for local citizens of Fužine, enjoying or performing every evening at a concert/jamming in the camp, reading, exercising, hiking or cycling, helping to maintain the camp, visiting the city of Rijeka and local Adriatic coast, hanging with artists-in-residence, just to name a few. Not to mention exploring the local flora and fauna with artists, biologists and tech geeks.
https://www.electric-wonderland.eu/Schmiede is an annual ten-day event for networking, learning, creation and presentation. It facilitates a creative pop-up ecosystem in order to enhance cooperation and motivate fast prototyping with more than 300 participants from over 15 nations and a good gender balance. Schmiede creates a temporary critical mass where there is usually none and forms a semi-public program around it. In any undertaking, Schmiede attempts to inspire, motivate and blur the line between the producer and the consumer, creating an autonomous and inclusive learning experience. The participants come to Hallein and enjoy this temporary collaborative workspace, which is open, fluid and stable at the same time.
Schmiede the playground of ideas for peer2peer learning and prototyping is organised into labs. Like everything at Schmiede labs are autonomous. To be more precise: Labs are focused Schmiedes within Schmiede with certain process stepping stones. Yes you could do a lab on spot whenever. However for Schmiede to provide support we need to talk ahead of time, before May. Labs at Schmiede are gathering points and islands of interest within Schmiede, bridging projects, labs and Smiths. A Lab can focus on anything of intereset to you, the lab leaders. Smiths with an understanding or strong focus on the content in question take action to create more. By creating a lab at Schmiede you open the door to bring together peers and support each other and your interest.

http://schmiede.caThe main goal of 4 one-month (or longer) residencies at osmo/za research & presentation venue in Ljubljana (SI), is to provide insight into the overall process of creating artworks in the field of new media, open source technologies, and DIY, DIWO and DITO practices, developed in connection with PIFcamp or another local creative platform/hub. The residencies will enable the artists to further develop their projects and will require from them to actively engage with possible other collaborators, the local communities, creative collectives and organisations through workshops, artist-talks, informal meetings and lectures. Hosts will provide the necessary means of production and facilitate cooperation with local experts and artists, with the possibility of post-production and future presentations of the artist’s work.
https://www.projekt-atol.si/en/Embracing the practice of creating as thinking Catch’s AIR invite international artists/hackers/makers working with technology as their medium to explore and disseminate ideas through an interdisciplinary lens. The international AIR programme provides possibilities for artists to work together with local artists, the city, the citizens, companies and cultural institutions to develop their ideas and projects. Catch is providing an environment, where people can co-create and develop the footing for new transdisciplinary sustainable ideas and visions. Catch believes that everyone has the potential to be both teacher and learner. By encouraging peer-to-peer learning, they offer a platform for the public to come together to share both questions and solutions through hands-on prototyping and cooperative exploration of ideas – Catch’s residents are therefore invited to share their knowledge, findings and questions with our audiences through exhibitions, events and workshops.
https://www.catch.dk/With a variable duration (from 3 weeks to 4 months), residents can either work on research and/or production of specific artworks that remain in Cultivamos Cultura or its surrounding area. These artworks will become integrated in the visitor’s itinerary and contribute to the local cultural offer. The residency will take advantage of Cultivamos Culltura infrastructure at Sao Luis, Alentejo, or collaborations with our partners in Lisbon coordinated through Ectopia – Experimental Art Laboratory. The venue itself offers workshops with basic equipment for electronics, and laboratory for biology related work; space for the development of performative work; (4) several exhibition spaces with different characteristics. Residents are encouraged to explore the social and natural environment: the village of Sao Luis, thesurrounding Southwest Alentejo coast natural park, andthe Atlantic coast. In Lisbon, there is an established collaboration with Ectopia – Experimental Art Laboratory that has a tradition in matching artists with research laboratories in the Lisbon area. Resident artists will have access to an art consultant (Marta de Menezes, art director of Cultivamos Cultura) and a scientific consultant (Luis Graca, expert in biomedical research, Professor at the University of Lisbon Medical School).
https://cultivamoscultura.com/category/residencies-2022/Radiona’s programme of residencies is open to various approaches in exploring the medium of technology-based arts and maker culture. Residents are invited to spend some research time in the lab in Zagreb, to work in collaboration with the local tech-art community, create an actual artefact, which is consequently presented at international exhibitions curated by Radiona, and to run a masterclass workshop in the lab. The main aim of the residency programme is to provide opportunities for an individual to delve into Radiona’s ecosystem and environment, to use its knowledge base and to acquaint the local maker scene with new practices
https://radiona.org/The multitude of Schmiede is structured around specialised Labs – they are gathering points and islands of interest within the Schmiede community. By creating a Lab at Schmiede one provides the opportunity for peers to come together, support each other and their interests. The FeralLab at Schmiede would focus on general Feral Labs Network topics and deepen as well as broaden their scope. Examples might be a small project team but can also be a related hub to enhance existing impulses. Labs are led by Lableaders who accepted responsibilities and therefore occupy a position that expands the free role of a Smith – a Schmiede participant. They do not need to solve or work on others’ challenges or projects, but are there to facilitate and direct, honouring the first SchmiedeRule: The autonomy of a Smith must not be undermined!
FeralAIR is an artist focused format which allows artists to not only participate at Schmiede but use its infrastructure during the entire period of September. Artists can enjoy focused work/studio environment as well as the intense DIWO environment of Schmiede. Finally, Schmiede hosts three different AIR programs enabling artist exchange also throughout September. Mentoring is optionally available. The longer durations of the AIRs also offer access to different workbenches around Salzburg, at University, as well as with our partners.

We will explore the expansive and pervasive character of water. Water connects everything, not only serving as a route to transport things between places but more than that it is itself fundamental to life, growth, and transformation through its elemental structure.
A week of hacking in the nature! 40 participants & more than 20 projects from the fields of new-media art, DIY electronics, modular synths, bio-art, citizen science, live coding, open-source technology & free software, food & nature hacking.
Field_Notes is an art and science field laboratory organized by the Bioart Society at the Kilpisjärvi Biological Station of the University of Helsinki in the Sapmi region in Lapland / Finland since 2011. During Field_Notes – The North Escaping, three groups of five will work in the sub-arctic Lapland for two weeks developing, testing and evaluating specific interdisciplinary approaches under the theme of The North Escaping. The groups are hosted by artists Till Bovermann, Elizabeth McTernan and Erich Berger.
The current climate crisis is transforming our world rapidly, with the most rapid transformations seen in the northern latitude. As the climate changes, it not only alters habitats and livelihoods but affects entities in a much deeper way. The North Escaping captures this mental state, which not only includes fear and anticipation of change, but also the loss of a certain world and the birth of a completely new one. Something is slipping away, slowly, and we are not sure what this all means.
Changes in weather, ecosystems, agriculture, human settlements, and cultures are ahead because of the redistribution of water, plants and animals – including people, across natural and artificial borders. We know that the North is already escaping, with the number of snow-cover days decreasing and new species entering the country from the south as the range of native species narrows. It is not an overstatement to say that the way we answer to this change – how we ignore, resist or adapt – will define the future of the existence of the northern cultures and livelihoods.

The Rewilding Cultures (RC) project wants to reposition the wild after COVID and focus on inclusivity and ecology within the art, science and technology area. A new gaze at this sector is needed and the stop in everything caused by COVID, provides us with an uncomfortable, but much needed time for reflection on potential change. We cannot go back to business as usual, especially in terms of polluting and important inclusion issues unaddressed. We need to rewild on terms fit for the present and future.
Within the last 10 years we have witnessed a large growth of various Creative Hubs; Maker-, Bio-, Art-, Coworking- Labs and -Spaces. They come in many shapes and sizes and operate as initiatives that give participants a social space equipped with technological opportunities, a space where everyone is encouraged to experiment, explore, create and share. The importance of the social and the communal aspect is one of the most important aspects of these Creative Hubs; they are not only places of rapid prototyping and caters to artists’ and makers’ needs, they are so much more than the fabrication machines and tools and their operators. They are places of rich social life and homes of diverse communities. Creative Hubs are now indispensable facilitators of Open and Citizen science and localization of production, New business model, testers and developers of Future technologies, as well as places of new and innovative uses of old technologies. They are places of reinvention and innovation in educational, life-long-learning processes.
FERAL LABS
The project builds on the legacy of the Feral Labs Network (FLN), a Small-scale Creative Europe project (with most activities in summers of 2019 and 2020), which connected organizers of Temporary Creative Hubs that vary in scope, format and topics, but hold a common methodological framework.
These Feral Labs, as we have dubbed them, form the first content pillar of our project. They are events of transdisciplinary nature which discern no clash in focusing on production of cultural artefacts and philosophy, hacking and tinkering with technology, sensing environmental data, creating educational content and addressing resilience by investigating environmental and technological challenges, all within the same event framework. By bringing together the worlds of art, humanities and social studies, education, digital activism, natural sciences and technology, participants inevitably learn about each other’s methods and processes, and benefit from each other’s know-how (tacit knowledge), know-why (the scientific explanation) and know-who (communication with & to). They can tap into the knowledge they usually could not access and discover new ways of approaching and defining social, political, natural and technological questions.
Feral Labs rely on and subscribe to the ethos of open and free software and hardware as harboured by the Free and Open Source movements. Furthermore, the participants of Feral Labs are oftentimes themselves avid champions of these ideals. However, our events are designed not just to propagate the use, the extraction of these principles, but also to encourage participants to publish their code, designs and documentation.
IONIAN UNIVERSITY (IURC)
The Ionian University, founded in 1984, has seven departments spread in the urban complex of Corfu and, since 2018, five departments in the islands Lefkada, Kefalonia and Zakynthos.

Schmiede is a cooperative prototyping festival between the arts, maker and digital media, a playground where our ideas come to play. The objective is to learn from the process, each other, build trust and find collaborators for the current or future projects. Schmiede does not teach. Schmiede provides inspiration and possibilities. Schmiede empowers this process by bringing together the essentials: space, people, infrastructure, food and freedom to explore. Schmiede is open to everyone interested.
Since 2003, Schmiede is the world Smiths (participants of Schmiede) create in late September, on an island in the Alps. Once a year, around 200 people from about 15 nations, peers, artists, experts, and students in their professions and spheres of interest come together in an old salt refinery in the city of Hallein. For ten days they experiment, network and present, to an audience but first of all to peers for feedback.
