* How long have you been awake before you first check your phone?
Tonight’s event is part of our public program, which runs parallel to the Summer Academy, and aims to extend, deconstruct, and reflect on the (human, post-human, trans-human, non-human) body. We have done this through for example: guided meditations focused on our relationship to artificial general intelligence, digital habits yoga, queer sports, morning raves, and more!
* How often and how long are you online per day?
* How often are you online longer and more often than you intended?


For many the answer to the last question is something in the direction: "(too) often". We walk around with slotmachines in our pocket. The software that we use every day made our lives a lot easier and better in some ways, but has also been developed to manipulate us in the developing habits by physically and mentally programming us to spend more and more time on that one site or platform.
The public program strives to create feedback loops between the activities of the academy participants and a larger public—allowing them to inform one another.

This workshop was part of the [[HDSA2019 Public Program]] Public Program of the Hackers & Designers Summer Academy of 2019 and was led by [[Jennifer Veldman]]. Critical Alignment Yoga was used to explore our own habits and preferred patterns and how we can manipulate ourselves towards positive habits. The knowledge gained during the yoga session is included in exercises and a discussion about our use of digital technology. (How) can you manipulate yourself?
Hackers & Designers aims to bring hackers, coders, and programmers, closer together with artists and designers in order to develop a common vocabulary and learn from one another. The H&D network has grown to include designers, artists, software developers, researchers, scientists, and theoreticians. Our main activities consist of hands-on workshops that focus on topics like web technologies, Peer 2 Peer networks, crypto currencies, typography, conditional design, printmaking, and simple hardware constructions.

Tonight’s event is part of our public program, which runs parallel to the Summer Academy, and aims to extend, deconstruct, and reflect on the (human, post-human, trans-human, non-human) body. We have done this through for example: guided meditations focused on our relationship to artificial general intelligence, digital habits yoga, queer sports, morning raves, and more!

The public program strives to create feedback loops between the activities of the academy participants and a larger public—allowing them to inform one another.


Hackers & Designers aims to bring hackers, coders, and programmers, closer together with artists and designers in order to develop a common vocabulary and learn from one another. The H&D network has grown to include designers, artists, software developers, researchers, scientists, and theoreticians. Our main activities consist of hands-on workshops that focus on topics like web technologies, Peer 2 Peer networks, crypto currencies, typography, conditional design, printmaking, and simple hardware constructions.
