Expanded Publishing Fest #2

19 April, 19:00-03:00 @ OT301, Amsterdam
free entry

I have lost my keys in cyberspace and now I can’t enter my house.

I spilled that digital porridge and my computer stopped working.

My metaverse shoes got drenched and now I’m near hypothermia.


Join us on Friday the 19th of April for  for a program of performances and talks, a micro book fair, a live tactical television broadcast, and a club night at OT301 in Amsterdam! 

From cloud to matter, from thought to cables, from light to meaning, from void to being. Our internet-connected devices hold an unprecedented power to multiply us into a manifold of realities. The conventional way to conceptualize this is segregational – we “space-out” and we’re in cyberspace. However, the escapist “spacing-out” is only one part of the picture. Let’s space-in.
