Museum night at Wintercircus Gent

You renovate? We turn. Together with artist/coder Kasper Jordaens, Design Museum Gent is developing creative code that converts our collection data into images during a unique algorave on Museum Night. In short: a party where both the music and the visualisation of our collection are coded live by different ‘algoravers’! For this project Lost in diffusion, we are collaborating with the Wintercircus, home to more than 38 tech start-ups, who, like the museum, want to shape the future together.

The programme:

• 18:00-01:00: Throughout, you can discover the results of our workshop during the Mutation Festival in the arena of the Wintercircus. During this workshop, we built on the software developed by Kasper Jordaens and showed the potential of open design. Be sure to drop by and take a seat behind the buttons yourself to generate visuals based on objects from our collection.
• 18:00-21:00: The Wintercircus offers an exclusive tour of their startup campus and collective spaces. They present the work of 38 startups shaping the future.
• 18:00-01:00: The Wintercircus' arena and exhibition space will be transformed into an algorave, richly decorated with live visuals based on data and images from our collection.
