INVITATION

Medialab Amsterdam/HvA and Waag Society like to invite you for a presentation from Patrik Svensson from Humlab.

The relationship between Humanities and ICT has long been problematic. Which is a pity, since they have a lot to offer to each other.
In the HUM Lab in Sweden Humanities and ICT work together. In the 'interdisciplinary environment' innovative projects are realized that wouldn't have been started in any other way. 
In the HUM Lab students, lecturers, researchers, artists, engineers and media specialists work together -using new methods and technology- at interdisciplinary projects. 
Apart from a homely atmosphere the HUM Lab offers the visitor a range of new IT equipment.
Director Patrik Svensson introduces the HUM Lab and answers questions.
