Whilst chaordinating (a word I keep slipping into sentences, and nobody even flinches, I hope they’re not hearing coordinating, or they’re missing the point) a truly epic event (which I really should write something about) with Gabriel Shalom (I should note we have 22 other collaborators, but this particular discussion was between the two of [...]
It’s a daunting project, and I wasn’t sure it was going to happen. But I’m on the road now, doing a five-week education expedition across the United States. Thanks for everyone who helped me get going! The goal of this project is finding glimpses of how we will learn in the future. And how did [...]
Yesterday, the WDHB roadshow stopped by in our cosy Berlin office. We were very honoured to have had the opportunity to let 20 managers dive into our world. Unfortunately we just had a 90 minute slot to show them our visions and world, this is why we kind of rushed through our whole story.
Palomar 5 is very excited to attend and hopefully contribute to http://www.breizh-entropy.org/, with quotes like: “Through a meeting fostering open-mindedness, exchange of ideas and learning, we hope to show solutions to technical, social and political problems, and celebrate free, reclaimed and creative art and technology” and “break artificial boundaries between disciplines and find unexpected ways [...]

Palomar5 – The movie is a 60-minute documentary about what happened at the Palomar5 camp, a residency program which took place during six weeks in fall 2009 in Berlin.

Working only on computers limits our thinking, Computers are linear, hierarchical and ineffiecient, bring functions into physical space, saves time, makes life easier, systems quicker and more efficient. Dada technology is a manifesto highlighting the need for physical interfaces, both from a human, and organisational perspective.
Current media landscapes are increasingly becoming overloaded with information and data. As the digital environment becomes more ubiqitous, this tide is unlikely to stop. Secondly, data still remains segmented and indecipherable for the user. The amateur does not have the tools or capacity to understand and tell stories within this environment.
