Reimagining Spaces: Join the Third Edition of MANIFEST:IO

Get ready for the third instalment of MANIFEST:IO, Berlin’s premier Symposium for New Media and Electronic Art, taking place February 22-23! Immerse yourself in a dynamic weekend filled with artist talks, workshops, and audio-visual performances, alongside an exhibition showcasing interactive installations, VR films, and spatial sound experiences.

This year’s theme, Fragmenting Places, Imagined Spaces, invites discussions that explore the complexities of space—from the gradual encroachment of gentrification to the sudden disruptions of demolition, as well as the quiet decay of neglected landscapes and the bold visioning of new environments.

Organized by TimeLab, the symposium ensures accessibility with ticket prices starting at just 10 EUR, offering both single-day and weekend passes. Plus, MANIFEST:IO 2025 is fully barrier-free and wheelchair accessible.

Location: Haus Der Visionäre (Eichenstraße 4a, 12435 Berlin)

Thanks to the generous support of fffeed and 3e8 studio, this year’s talks will also be livestreamed, allowing you to join the conversation online.
