The worldwide family of dorkbots is constantly growing and dorkbot has finally arrived in the very heart of (fortress) Europe. We at monochrom will try to organize the events in Vienna. You don't know Dorkbot? Well, Dorkbot is a regular meeting of people doing strange things with electricity.
the main goals of dorkbot vienna are: to create an informal, friendly environment in which people can talk about the work they're doing and to foster discussion about that work; to help bring together people from different backgrounds who are interested in similar things; to give us all an opportunity to see the strange things our neighbors are doing with electricity. dorkbot isn't really a forum for formal artist talks or lectures, but rather a chance for diverse people to have friendly conversations about interesting ideas.
Please subscribe to the dorkbotvienna-blabla list (open discussion and announcement list) or to the dorkbotvienna-announce list (read-only, information about future dorkbot events in and around Vienna). Link
monochrom is an art-technology-philosophy group having its seat in Vienna and Zeta Draconis. monochrom is an unpeculiar mixture of proto-aesthetic fringe work, pop attitude, subcultural science, context hacking and political activism. Our mission is conducted everywhere, but first and foremost in culture-archeological digs into the seats (and pockets) of ideology and entertainment. monochrom has existed in this (and almost every other) form since 1993.
