Following an open call, 10 workshop participants have been chosen to join a week-long workshop with Kim Asendorf on code-based digital art. Participants will collaborate with Kim on a peer-to-peer level. Coding will be done in Solidity and JavaScript, to create visual or acoustic layers as surfaces of digital artworks. This workshop is for anyone interested in exploring code as a medium for visual arts: artists who code, coders working artistically, and creatives in related fields such as music and design.
The working group’s exhibition will follow later this year.

The workshop will be followed by Kim Asendorf's first retrospective: Complex.
