Across Access Autonomy: Re-thinking Hybrid Culture | Research Nights

As part of thinking of het Nieuwe Insituut as testing ground (for an internet beyond platform capitalism), the Research team invites you to think along with speakers and participants, test out tools, and ultimately work towards a lasting impact in autonomy across spaces.

Across Access Autonomy: Re-thinking Hybrid Culture is an event that gathers thoughts and tools for truly inclusive cultural programming that is independent from mainstream platforms and experimental in its approaches to hybridity. In a post-pandemic setting, centralised and commercial platforms and providers have taken over the “online” lives of cultural institutions, often offering limited options for access, inclusivity and participation.

During this event, we will examine how we might work with free and open-source tools before, during, and after an event - stepping away from speculative technologies and realising digital culture in alternative ways. In recognising that platforms also become epistemic and infrastructural institutions affecting cultural production, we will question what other hybridity is possible, highlighting past, existing and potential avenues.
