Kickstarted: Finding Space (and Making a Makerspace) This week marks an important milestone for OpenROV: we’re moving out of the garage.

Kickstarted: Finding Space (and Making a Makerspace)

Not because we’re planning for exponential growth, hiring dozens of people, or have raised venture capital. We’re moving out because we have completely run out of space. Our movement around our Cupertino, Calif. garage is now limited to a maze of stacked boxes: acrylic plastic, webcams, brushless motors. It’s all here. Despite our meticulous planning and strategy, we still underestimated the amount of actual, physical space that this process would require. Gidsy.com: book and offer tours, activities, workshops, local events and more exciting things to do.

MediaZoo Studios, Belfast – Space to Create. Shwood Presents Makers Part 1: ADX. ABOUT MADE. MADE is a creative platform for artists from various fields, located in the heart of Berlin.

ABOUT MADE

It can be a gallery, a workspace, a studio, a stage, a laboratory, or a performance space – but most of all, it is a venue for interdisciplinary projects that invites artists to step out of their artistic routines. The goal of MADE is to enable a new kind of creative work by bringing together different artistic fields and offering a workspace and an inspiring biotope that allows new things to happen. MADE was founded in early 2010 by German contemporary artist tadiROCK, her partner Nico Zeh and ABSOLUT Vodka, a visionary brand that fosters creative collaborations for over 30 years.

Funkhaus Berlin Nalepastrasse. Project Room Centrum Berlin. In conversation between artist Marcin Malaszczak and Kate Squires (Centrum) Marcin Malaszczak is a film and video director based in Berlin.

Project Room Centrum Berlin

He has been working on a series of projects inspired by the mental health institution, Sieniawka located in the Polish village of the same name in which he grew up. KS You have created an installation at Centrum from the material you filmed at Sieniawka, as a filmmaker what made you want to develop an installation in a physical space other than a cinema? MM I started to work on the project Sieniawka in late autumn 2009 which at this moment consists out of four works: a feature film with the working title Sieniawka; the video installation presented at Centrum; another concept for a video installation, The Hi – room; and an installation Atavisagen.
