NODE is a celebration of culture, arts and technology. It is a place for open-minded exchange and critical discourse on an eye level: laypersons and professionals equally become teachers and students sharing their challenges and ideas.

NODE stimulates open and interdisciplinary knowledge transfer. We bring together the arts, science, politics and the business end of things to investigate the digital transformation of society in a holistic way.

NODE works in a worldwide network of individuals and organisations to support, share and critically discuss new creative techniques. We foster innovative thinking, experimentation and prototyping. We provide room for feedback and immediate proof of concept for projects that inspire the art scene and pour in the established creative industries.

NODE seeks to shape an environment encouraging all to become critical creators rather than followers. We provide practical and theoretical impulses for thought and a safe-space for asking questions and expressing ideas. We open a debate not only among the creators of technology but also with the wider public to interfere and become co-creators in these processes.

Together with buero.us we helped the visitors of the festival to never loose track.
