<br>
Convert yourself into E-waste, ferment yourself, chase honeybees for
weather report, launch fungi to outerspace, send your mobile on a slow
boat to China, set your electric sheep free range, grow your android
plants, tune in to ghostradio, stream in the orchestra, piss off to
compute, eat your data raw, read your pulse loud, make your own bed,
make love to your tattoo, hand over your hangover, take a dip in the
Danube, check into the underwater eel hotel, admits yourself to a
world without compromise, a world in which dreams greet reality and
technology is treated with great caution.<br>
<br>
In 2015, Stadtwerkstatt, the nerve center of Linz' free/open culture
takes up "the nature of information" as a matter of inquiry and
launches information LAB to house its many ongoing information
research projects. For Stadtwerkstatt which always presents a
reference to the established system, an information laboratory is a
challenge of the presence. While the world of natural sciences updates
and releases information through logical conclusions, the information
LAB retrieves seemingly meaningless information data without seeking
conclusive arguments. It is about the interplay between reality and
information, about the observation of observation, taking in
contingency randomness in the process of encoding unique information,
looking deeper into concepts of decision-making and conclusion.<br>
<br>
From STWST cultural space to Am Winterhafen where Messschiff Eleonore
is anchored, along the Danube, cross the continents, STWST48 -
crashing the information in 48 hours brings together
events/non-events, information/non-information, hack/fab labs,
reality/dreams, unfiltered/raw/random/mined/cooked/processed infodata.
The 48 hour programs are organized under the four headlines - infoLAB,
infoDETOX, infoCRACH and Nightline's CRASH THE FUTURE.<br>
