travellab.love::: split / connect / spaces![]() > public access / projects spaceThe 'Public Access / Projects Space' will be closely allied to the activities of travellab's outreach projects. This is where the public at large will encounter travelled in its most intensive form. It will be equipped with an array of terminals for public use, and will be a space that can be used for conducting workshops, training programmes and demonstrations of new software. The terminals will also be bundled with the travellab Interface, which will attract interactive browsing, allow limited access to the Travellab database, and showcase curated downloads from the Internet. The space will be available for bookings against reservations to groups and organisations that are working in areas that resonate with travellab's vision. In time (and with the availability of greater bandwidth) the Public Projects Space will mature into a fully functional Internet access zone. Users will have free (as in gratis) but not unlimited access to the Public Projects Space on an individual basis. travellab will put in place an incentive based access system, which will offer greater amounts of access as a reward for active participation in various aspects of the travellab Programme. > screening and seminar spaceThe 'Seminar and Screening Space' is a well-equipped venue for talks, seminars, presentations and public screenings of video and multimedia content. The 'Seminar and Screening Space' will host regular public talks, seminars and discussions organised by the travellab programme on urban issues and on various aspects of old and new media practice and culture. It will also host a regular and curated schedule of screenings of video copies of films, followed by discussions. > galleryThe 'Display Space' at travellab is a site for the exhibition of innovative and experimental media work. These can be multimedia installations, digital art works, fine art works, performances and alternative software and interfaces. They may be specially commissioned or curated works, selections from the travellab Media Lab and local Project's output, selections from the travellab Archive's holdings, exhibitions of works gifted or loaned to travellab, or related to the work of collaborators and partners as well as edited selections from public domain sites on the Internet. > archivetravellab will maintain a digital archive on media cultures and urban spaces with a special interest in media initiatives. The archive will be physically located on site at travellab's project spaces and will be open to the public at large. It will be accessible through electronic networks, both the Internet and local bulletin boards. From time to time the archive, in tandem with the research and fellowship programmes, will hold special exhibitions and conduct outreach programmes to the wider community. It will also attempt to create links with other media and urban archives. > media labThe objective behind travellab's Media Lab is the creation of a democratic context for the interplay of art, technology and critical reflection. It hopes to give rise to a unique cultural expression through creative dialogue between diverse repertoires of visual culture in an international digital framework. ![]() > the travellab media lab will provide:
