The Lab

The Lab

The MetaCulture Media Lab envisions to create an open and alternative space for creative inquiry in the techno-social arena. The space offers a conducive environment for hands-on learning through experimentation with open and interactive technologies to enhance human experience in networked cultures. Our doors are open to anyone eager to engage in innovative exploration and meet like-minded individuals. The space is shared by a multidisciplinary representation ranging from NGO members, social scientists, artists, designers, technology hobbyists, start-ups, members of the industry, and other community members.

Besides providing an open participatory space, we regularly feature exhibitions, workshops, presentations, film screening and other events that are of interest to a wider community of technology and digital humanity enthusiasts, in a collaborative spirit of “learn, teach and share”.
