Join us for 6 afternoon sessions of Openlab Groningen! The Openlab is a
workspace equipped with 6 workstations running a wide variety of open
source software for artists and designers. The goal of the lab is to
kick start a community in Groningen that brings together local
artists/designers/programmers that work with or are interested to work
with open source software.

The lab in Groningen will kick off with the 3 day workshop 'hello
process'. After the workshop the lab will be open for 3 weeks on
Tuesdays and Thursdays from 14.00 until 18.00. The lab is open to
everyone interested in making, researching, exchanging, learning or
simply working, having a (lot of) coffee and a chat. Permanent
inhabitants of the lab: 'hello process' artists Aymeric Mansoux and
Marloes de Valk from digital art collective GOTO10 (bring cookies plz).

Openlab Groningen will be the third European Openlab. The first Openlab
started 3 years ago in London. The lab organises performances,
exhibitions and meetings. The project stimulates the use of open source
software through the organisation of events. The second lab in existence
is Openlab Glasgow. It started a year ago, and is a collective that is
open to artists who are interested in the use of technology within their
arts practice. The group is based on the sharing and exchange of skills,
collaborative projects and the exchange of ideas.
