A two week workshop in Madrid, Spain will start tomorrow. The focus of the training from Open Up is on the development of projects for the digital façade in Medialab-Prado's building. This is a collaborative effort is meant to explore the relationship between the urban screen and public space, to experiment with the screen’s communicative, narrative and visual capacities, and to investigate its potential to offer new forms of participation. Selected projects will even be developed further.

Worskhop tutors: Jordi Claramonte, Chandler McWilliams, Casey Reas, and Víctor Viña. Directed and coordinated by Nerea Calvillo.

Key words for thought: the development of strategies for public participation, activation of urban space through the screen, fostering public visibility of agents that normally have none, visualization of public collectives, interaction with portable devices.
