Did you take your phone swimming? Do you feel your phone is listening in on you? For the new art project ADVICE WELL TAKEN: Folk tales of digital salvation by our EMAP resident artist Dasha Ilina, we are collecting stories and experiences about data, privacy and how to fix our devices. We organise two open sessions in April. You are invited to pass by (no tickets required), share your story and grab a drink for us!

About ADVICE WELL TAKEN
Techlore is the focus of the residency that EMAP resident artist Dasha Ilina will soon start in Utrecht. Techlore is the modern folk knowledge and contemporary folkore surrounding technology. On websites, bulletin boards and newsgroups people exchange all kinds of digital tricks, short-cuts, hacks and tech superstition. How did you save that cell phone that still was in your pocket when you jumped in the pool? What are you doing to make sure no one is spying on you via your own webcam? Making sense or being completely ridiculous, we go to great lengths to make sure we stay in charge over our devices. For her new project ADVICE WELL TAKEN: Folk tales of digital salvation Dasha Ilina wants to hear your stories, solutions and concerns. Drop by and share your techlore with us!
