perform their proposed projects but should present ideas that must be
open to the participation of other interested collaborators who may
contribute to carrying it out during the workshop. For that reason,
there are two ways to participate in the workshop: as the promoter of
a project, or as a collaborator on one of the selected projects. In

an idea exchange forum will be created where specific knowledge may
be offered or requested to carry out each proposal. Once the projects
have been selected, a second call will be announced to those persons
who wish to take part in the production process of the works.
The necessary means to carry out the selected projects will be made
available by Medialab Madrid, as far as possible.

produce the selected projects, pending prior application from the

have been made to gain some performance ... nova-0.1 is known to run on
linux (x86 & x86_64) and on osx.
