LABtoLAB@Nantes, laboratory for digital cultures

From June 8th to 10th, 2011, PiNG invites you to participate in 3
days of international meeting, workshops, performances and concerts
about digital creation, for professionals and for a large audience.

This event is part of the project LABtoLAB, a serie of meetings
that took place in 2009 and 2011 between several European media labs.

The programme of these three days of international gathering is articulated between:

+ [LABtoLAB meetings] mornings are open, upon registration, to professionals (assemblies, round tables, discussion groups)

+ [LieuMobile] in the afternoon open workshops, in a new space every day (practice workshops, devices and tools demos, projects presentation)

+ [LAB nights] spaces of conviviality and artistic curiosity echoing the meetings (happy hour mix, concerts, performances)

These events are bound to be challenging! LABtoLAB@Nantes brings
together networks and active participants from all horizons, European
media labs but also spaces, collectives and networks from Africa, Asia
and Latin America. A mobile place is being installed for one day on the
roof of the School of Architecture, the next day on the terrace of the
lieu unique,and then at La BaraKaSon, a local venue. Finally the evening
program offers to gather around
a welcome drink on the riverside of the Loire, to (re)visit the Fine
Arts Museum through a lecture-performance before ending the whole event
with one evening of VJing, circuit bending and electro 8bit where how
(almost) all is being made that very afternoon.

The program is both dense and diffuse. A cartography of Nantes is
spreading throughout the host locations. Every day, a new itinerary
will be proposed to participants. These diversions are truly vital to
generate new encounters and invent what is ahead of us.
