CRAC (Creative Room for Art and Computing)

CRAC is a digital media workshop in central Stockholm, Sweden.
CRAC combines advanced digital technology and artistic integrity and offers
a unique setting for the production of digital art and for
research in  the field.

CRAC gives artists the opportunity to work with most digital tools,
including video, sound, www, 2-D and 3-D images. The equipment is
continuously updated and our goal is to always have the most up-to-date
technologies available.

We sponsor seminars relating to artistic and digital fields in order to
further understanding of current and future tools for artmaking.

Collaborative research with other Swedish and international participants in
the field of digital technology also falls within CRAC's agenda. Please
inform us on other activities of this kind.

CRAC is run by the non-profit organization SKODK (Svenska Konstnarers
Organisation for Digital Konst) and the foundation MediaLab.

SKODK was founded in 1996 by visual artists and artists working with sound.
The goal was to start and run a non-commercial, digital workshop.  With
generous support from Sveriges Bildkonstnâ?°rsfond, Stiftelsen Framtidens
Kultur, and Stiftelsen fË?r Kunskaps- och Kompetensutveckling, SKODK opened
the CRAC workshop in 1997.

The members of SKODK have access to the workshop on a project-to-project
basis. You, swedish or not,  can apply for SKODK membership if you have
documentation of previous artistic practice and experience with digital
technology. We also look for exchange situations so that we ( and perhaps
you) will be able to work in various places in the world.
Please contact the direction for more information and/or an application for
membership in SKODK.
