MemActs*

 

Projects, papers, provocations, products, purgatories, paradises, promises, plans, phantasies, policies, poetries … wanted, related to the topic of our annual conference BY DESIGN OR BY DISASTER:

With the organization of our conference BY DESIGN OR BY DISASTER 2019 in full swing, we are excited to announce the MemActs*.

In this session, you can present whatever you think matters when Making Transformation Tangible! Present in whichever way you want, but no longer than 7 minutes. Show slides, do pantomime, draw live, build a rapid prototype, sing, jump on the table and recite a poem…

* We called it “Pecha Kucha” before, but we decided to extend the format.
