Digital Spieletag | 1 - 2.30 PM
In this Spieletag (play day) special edition, we will play Codenames, a card game with the theme of urban gardening, and compete to guess who the Secret Agent is based on clues provided by the game leader. Players are divided into two teams—red and blue—and then have to decode and find the Secret Agent of the same color in their respective team. Think twice before you guess! If you mistakenly choose the Assassin, your team automatically loses.

MORE DETAILS:

Sedekah Benih is a collaborative project between artist Vincent Rumahloine and environmental activist Mang Dian. It combines art, design, activism, science, music, technology and traditional ecological knowledge. The project uses a gamification approach, involving participants from various backgrounds in a series of activities. The aim of Sedekah Benih is to preserve traditional ecological knowledge, to generate appreciation for tiis leungeun (a call to people who excel at working with plants), and to connect people through food. Sedekah Benih extracts and preserves the traditional knowledge of tiis leungeun through an interdisciplinary art project.

Bottlesmoker is an electronic music duo/group project by Anggung Suherman (Angkuy) & Ryan Adzani (Nobie), both of whom are music producers, film score composers, lecturers and sound designers. In creating their pieces, they focus on exploring local rhythms and objects around them, from rhythms of traditional art forms to plants as sound media to be combined through electronic music. Bottlesmoker’s exploration of musical genres ranges from tribal music to techno, pacific vibes to psychedelic, and even downtempo to ambient.
