A networking day all about how artists work collaboratively with each other and audiences in the co-production of artworks or events as a central part of their practice. The event is open to artists, curators, musicians, writers, programmers, activists; thinkers and doers of all kinds.

What Will Happen?
The event kicks off with presentations by artists Saul Albert, Ele Carpenter, Adnan Hadzi, Emily Druiff and Lottie Childs, who work with different models of participation and engagement. Discussion and debate will be encouraged in response to each presentation. After refreshments follows an audiovisual performance by Chinese digital artists 8GG, ‘the air been broken’, a new commission by Folly. For the rest of the afternoon visitors are asked to show-and-tell each other what they do. All visitors are asked to bring some representation of their own projects to promote and to share with other potential collaborators. These can take the form of drawings on paper, objects, a digital artefacts, a scientific prototype- whatever it takes. We will round off the event with an ‘open mike’ session of quickfire presentations; any visitor can present their own or other’s work, offer their services and skills to another project or make a request for help with completing their own project.
