Panel Statement

Panel: Dublin Forum

E-mobileart lab + MediaLab Prado present their projects and discuss collaborative art-science practice.

Medialab-Prado is a program of the Department of Arts of the City Council of Madrid, aimed at the production, research, and dissemination of digital culture and of the area where art, science, technology, and society intersect. Their primary objective is to create a structure where both research and production are processes permeable to user participation.                        medialab-prado.es

  • Laura Fernandez & Marcos Garcia head content development and co-ordinate the main working lines of Madrid’s Medialab-Prado. In spring of 2006 they started the project Interactivos, a platform for developing projects through the collaboration of participants who come from different disciplines, combining production workshop, theoretical symposium and exhibition in a process that has been open to all audiences since its inception. Other working lines at Medialab-Prado such as Visualizar, Commons Lab, Inclusiva-net and AVLAB use the collaborative model of Interactivos in their development.
