Substrate is a co-production where researchers from the Medea Collaborative Media Initiative at Malmö University work together with Sigma Kudos, a global provider of information logistics solutions and product information.
The goal is to develop new tools for producing and using technical information, based on a collaborative media approach where the traditional distinction between producers and consumers is challenged.
The name of the project — Substrate — is intended to evoke the idea of hospitable conditions for something to grow. In this case, what should grow on our substrates is of course knowledge.
