Test_Lab is a bi-monthly public event organised by V2_ Institute for the
Unstable Media that provides an informal setting for the presentation,
demonstration, testing, and discussion of artistic research and
development (aRt&D).

*Test_lab: Happiness* will showcase a selection of 2008’s most
outstanding graduation projects from some of the finest European art
academies and universities. Together, the demonstrated works will
broaden our horizons regarding a young generation’s utopian, esoteric,
and psychedelic views on our technology-driven world of mediated
intimacy, ubiquitous interaction, and extended bodies. Prepare for an
evening full of electronic artworks dealing with today’s notions of
peace, love, and happiness!
