What can we learn/what are the expectations from media-labs?

Our round-table session is open to the public!

LABtoLAB first meeting session is happening this week at Kitchen Budapest. In these days we are working on examining today's media-lab practices, explore differences and common things, self-define and analyze context.

Your are welcome to join our discussion at 5PM on Thursday 10th 2009 at Kitchen Budapest.
