publication

     

Thinktank 0.1 is a publication that was conceived within the groupware research and development project of the same name, initiated by Inga Zimprich 2005 – 2007.

The Thinktank project intervenes at the meeting point between social development, artistic practice and technological possibilities. It develops an online working structure (group ware) for collaborative projects. Embedded in a user-friendly interface the Thinktank will offer new functions, which derive from research into collaborative dynamics. The remote conversations held in the Thinktank research were transformed into the form of a publication that is printed through a Printing On Demand model. Each book summarizes one of the conversations held amongst different participants, for example on “Heterogenous Knowledge Groups”.
