  • Start time: 19:30
  • Free entrance

Monthly meetup of the MetaMatter community: a laboratory of research and practice focused on transformations of matter. We will have fire perform its states of matter. We will interact with fire, and we will discuss aspects of its representation and application in the visual arts. 

Our session will take place in the back room, with big projection screen and precise sound system. Please leave a comment on our Facebook event, if you can bring any of: high speed camera, materials for experiments, interesting sensors and devices, fast computer for live streaming

And maybe you know a firefighter who would like to join, or a volcanologist?

We are looking forward to meeting with you and sharing ideas! 

MetaMatter is a laboratory of research and practice focused on transformations of matter. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, we look at chemical, physical and biochemical processes with the aim to build knowledge and tools for creative projects. We investigate color, state, mass and temperature to find out the conditions of reaction. We also research aspects of unfolding the nature of materiality, set in motion by using electromagnetism, luminescence and vibrations.

In our community meetings we have talks and presentations on topic-related projects together with a more pragmatic level of collecting experiences to share with others. Beside, we could have a chance to hear from each other possible ideas for the makerlab at Spektrum.

Anyone with a passion for learning to understand the possibility of matter as an available medium for Art and Science is welcome to join.
