Workshops
Next 5 Minutes 4 will host an extensive series of workshops that will focus
in a more concentrated setting on various aspects of the overall festival
program. The workshops will have a more practical and 'hands-on' character.
The workshops will feed on the availability of a unique group of
highly experienced practitioners and specialist brought together for the
festival in Amsterdam from many different countries.
The main workshop
locations will be the Waag Society, Imagine IC (Amsterdam South East), the
Artlab of Montevideo and a dedicated and fully equipped workshop space at
the Melkweg.
The workshops will start in the days prior to the festival and
will extend for two days beyond the three main festival days, thus making
available a full week for the workshop program.
The registration for workshops will be open for festival participants and
audience, but is limited to a maximum number of participants. Where possible
audience facilities will be made available for people who want to follow the
workshops as listeners.
At the 2000 net.congestion festival we discovered
that the interest for this possibility was surprisingly large.
