Amongst our fields of interest are: experimental interaction and electronics; renewable energy production/use; bioarts and art-science culture; grassroot organising and networks; politics and economics of media/technology; alternative economy cultures; VJ culture and audiovisual performances; media literacy and engaging environmental issues. Related pedagogy on the above topics aims to support the regional grassroots scene(s), and is based upon learning from experience and from peers: Learning by doing, and doing it together. The programme variably consists of presentations, workshops, camps, expeditions and other events: Some share and sustain ongoing local practice; others benefit from serendipity and specialists visiting Helsinki; or support activity that happens outside the usual locations, including the nearby regions.

>> AIMS & OBJECTIVES

Pixelversity aims to be a 'learning bridge' between practitioners, cultural and non-profit organisations, interested individuals and larger institutions, and an outreach programme extending beyond Helsinki. Consideration is given to the relationships between the different activities, and how they may build up accumulative knowledge and skills towards future Pixelache events. Click to read more.
