Laboratory Berlin will present the series Time & Technology
at the international conference MutaMorphosis in Prague from December
6-8, 2012. Technological developments over the past 25 years have altered our lives.

What is the contemporary connection between time and space – actual space, virtual space vs. actual time and virtual time? More
