About bugs, bots & bytes


In 2015 Hackers & Designers launched their first summer academy. Stirred by the title of 'About Bugs, Bots and Bytes' H&D curated a hands-on program including, workshops, excursion, a public film screening and lectures. The biggest part of the program took place in De PUNT, an art & project space in the center of Amsterdam. Fostering an understanding of contemporary digital culture and maximising participation ambiguities and misconceptions about topics like privacy, surveillance, open source, user-controlled platforms, role of algorithms, digital-self and identity were researched in a playful and hands-on manner.


The immersive program of the Summer Academy allowed participants to build relationships and investigate new technology and design media, and equipped them with technological tools, collaboration opportunities, cross-disciplinary vocabulary, and an understanding of tech and design tools in a social context.


The cover charge of €350,00 per participant covered the 10 day program, a welcome dinner, daily lunches and an arduino kit.
