Open Up is a workshop for the development of projects for the digital 
façade in Medialab-Prado's building. This call is addressed to the 
presentation of proposals to be collaboratively developed during the 
workshop-seminar taking place in Madrid from February 9 through 23, 2010.

The goal is to explore the relation between the urban screen and public 
space, to experiment with the screen's communicative, narrative and 
visual capacities and to investigate its potential to offer new forms of 
participation such as receiving and participating in the different 
phases of content production. Selected projects will be developed under 
the supervision of teachers, technical assistants and an extensive group 
of collaborators.

Projects presented in this call will have to explore aspects such as: 
development of strategies for public participation, activation of urban 
space through the screen, foster public visibility of agents that 
normally have none, visualization of public collectives; interaction 
with portable devices, etc.

All those interested in collaborating in one of the selected projects 
can sign in from *J**anuary 5 through February 8, 2010*.


Check the call guidelines and submit your project before *December 10, 
2009*.* *No entry fees.*
