Grok Institute

We have created a new-format Digital Art, Light and Music event named Grok Institute.

Less of an opening and more or a party, he event itself is not a gallery, a gathering, an opening or a clubnight; but rather a mix of all of the above and sitting somewhere in between.

There is a brilliant quote by someone we can't remember that went something like "it would be easier to put all of the world's art onto the internet that get one piece of internet art into a gallery offline". We aim to change that.

Grok Institute is giving the enchantment of digital art, music and technology a much needed platform where the digitally inclined can connect, inspire and collaborate on even newer and more demanding projects.

Grok Institute takes place throughout the year within London, utilising old, new and forgotten spaces and repurposing them into temporary popup galleries.

Grok Institute will also expand into other global hubs in the future. We received an amazing offer to do one in Moscow, but it turned out it was all to schill for a tobacco company, so we turned it down. If you would like to join as a sponsor of what is arguably the coolest event series ever (ever) then do by all means get in touch (if you're not a tobacco company).

BBC Blast Studio

In creative collaboration with Fallon/Harmonypark/Nanika/Hothouse, we created a new interactive studio space for the BBC that enabled young people to engage with and make collaborative art inside of Felix Topolski’s original studio within London’s Southbank Centre.

The robotic art-making devices were user-controlled via an internet browser and viewed globally using realtime online video streaming.

This project was live 24/7 for a 30 day period and created a series of web-mediated collaborative artworks that brought playful and experimental internet/digital into the public domain.
