VISUALIZAR'08: DATABASE CITY - Call for Collaborators (closed)

Medialab-Prado issues a call for all those interested in taking part in the VISUALIZAR'08: DATABASE CITY workshop by collaborating in any of the teams that will develop the  selected proposals.

In addition to this 8 selected proposals, there will be an invited project that will be also collaboratively developed: Cartografía del estrecho 2.0, coordinated by hackitectura.net.

The role of the collaborator is crucial in the Medialab-Prado's workshops' statement and development process, as these workshops are constituted as a horizontal collaborative work environment, knowledge interchange and theoretical-practical training among teachers, authors and collaborators.

Medialab-Prado can issue a diploma to collaborators after completing the workshop. Also, projects carried out will be property of their author(s), although whenever said projects are shown at festivals or exhibits, and whenever images of said projects are reproduced in catalogues or websites, their relation with Interactivos? and the names of the people who collaborated in developing the projects will also be shown.

If you are interested, please submit the form you will find below before October 31.

In the "Comments" field, please specify:

· Your time availability to attend the workshop (as much dedication as possible is recommended, since it is an intensive workshop).

· Títle of the project you would like to collaborate in.

Pending application and for participants residing outside Madrid, Medialab-Prado will cover lodging expenses at Mejía Lequerica Youth Hostel for collaborators.* Don't forget to specify arrival and departure dates if your are going to chose this option.

Please sign in and post in the VISUALIZAR forum  to find additional information about selected projects, post questions and get in touch with teachers and project developers.
