We present and discuss works, tools, practices and thoughts that deal with autonomy, systemic and eco-systemic theories and interdependence in relation to art and technology and their underlying social and aesthetical paradigms, including contributions from different fields such as sound and digital art, game design and performative art. The series is free and open to the public and offers an open space for inspiration for everyone interested in the field. All events are held online in „big blue button“.
