MYCREATIVITY SWEATSHOP
A reality check on the creative industries
Talks, Discussions, Art, Workshops, Performances
20-21 November 2014
@TrouwAmsterdam
The Institute of Network Cultures presents MYCREATIVITY SWEATSHOP, an
international symposium where artists, scholars and activists critically
probe the conditions of creative production in today’s economy. Two days
of panels, performances, discussions and workshops will open a space to
focus on the consequences of global creative industries policy, to
discuss alternatives and to develop new paths for both survival and
subversion.
In many countries creative industries policy is radically reshaping the
conditions of creative production. Simultaneously, new technologies are
increasingly turning creative processes into a function of big data
streams, algorithms and digital scalability. What are the new physical,
technological and aesthetic spaces of subversion and critique? How do
creative industry policy and the big data economies influence the idea
of artistic autonomy? And, as the ‘creative’ city mutates into the
‘smart’ city, what are appropriate strategies for smart interventions
from below?
We invite artists, managers, designers, computer engineers, cultural
workers, internet entrepreneurs, educators, market strategists,
squatters, policy makers and anyone else interested in forging new ways
and means for creative survival, to join us on 20-21 November at Trouw
in Amsterdam.
