This 3-day workshop will be held by two members of Libre Space Foundation, who will introduce us to their project and the different technologies they are developing. Together we will build a DIY Satellite Ground Station to be connected to the SatNOGS Network, which consists on a global open source network to get free access to Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellites.

El impacto generado por el coronavirus nos ha situado en un escenario nuevo, lleno de incertidumbres. Los colegios permanecen cerrados, mientras que las desigualdades se ahondan y las colas de la emergencia se alargan. Las preguntas sobre qué nos ha traído hasta aquí y de qué manera saldremos se multiplican. Mientras unos reclaman libertad para retomar la actividad y la vida tal y como la conocíamos, otras señalan la relación de esta pandemia con el cambio climático y la urgencia de revisar los modos en que producimos, consumimos, nos relacionamos y nos cuidamos.

We seek to create a space where, we can identify the needs of our city and promote dialogues through which initiatives can arise to meet those demands. At the same time, we will work on the dissemination of this type of international frameworks that promote a series of principles on which the policies of cities can be based.The 2030 agenda and SDG are our framework.

To do this, we summon you, analogically and digitally, around the digital façade of Medialab Prado next Saturday, June 18 at sunset ».

This interactive video-installation Works on how we experiment and perceive the smile. Lien-Chen Wang searches the word “smile” on Google in order to collect facial expressions captured in all kind of moments. The outcome is a bunch of virtual images that have undergone an alienation process. The software used detects the spectator’s position through a camera so that everyone has to deal with a foreign smile in an impersonal and anonymous representation.  

This installation enables us to think about the mental process involved in an emotional response such as smiling. Behind these smiles

Photogrammetry, or Structure-from-Motion, is a method of reconstructing the 3D model of an arbitrary object from a series of photographs using a digital camera. This technique can trace, record and represent geometries, textures, and sites both efficiently and relatively inexpensively. In this workshop, participants will learn how to systematically photograph things and the steps of processing digital images into a 3D model with Agisoft's MetaShape and Meshlab.

The workshop is structured in one practical session at Medialab Prado. In the first part of the session, the artist will explain
