2021

6.-11. December 2021 organized by servus.at in cooperation with Radio FRO and Potato Publishing

The servus d*sign week is a week of conversations about design and its various implications. From the point of view of an initiative dealing with open source tools and internet technologies, “design” can fall dangerously close to corner smelling like capitalism. We invite critical designers to share their ideas through a series of radio conversations and workshops about alternative practices and critical approaches to design.

Participants are Christoph Haag, Libre Graphics Club, Mara Karayanni,  Ruben Pater, Potato Publishing, Varia, in conversation with Davide Bevilacqua and Gabriela Gordillo.

Team: Graphic concept by Juan Pablo Linares and Sound design by Cachichi
