How much of work is play? What does work look like in the future? Let’s play the game of work! Games in the working environment, gamification, Open Source, Open Data, co-working and crowd-working are ubiquitous and change our world(s) of work fundamentally.

By producing games itself, the artistic research project LABOURGAMES questions the relationship between work and play and creates new perspectives on the current system of work in Europe. Together with our European partners from Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, Greece and the UK, over the next three years, we will search for the future of work.

It starts with a one-day Un-Conference on 3.12.2016 at the Impact Hub in Berlin. Project partners and professionals, gamers and consultants, associates and other creatives, sketch, discuss and play for a day and find new links between work and play. At the same time, they will plan the framework for the subsequent artistic research in the participating European countries.

The Un-Conference is an Open Space event, where the content and workflow is created by the participants on the fly. Some of the working groups and workshops are led by the LABOURGAMES project partners and consultants, others are self-organised and run by the event conference participants themselves.

The number of participants is limited, first come first served.
Fee of EUR 12.- includes catering.
The working languages are English and German.
