• Creativity + Technology + Activism = META

      FOSTERING INNOVATION & COLLABORATION

    • EXPLORE CONVERGENCE CULTURE

      Miami Emerging Technology & Arts (META) is an open-share collective on a mission to connect Miami’s brightest minds.

       

      We bring together Makers, Activists, Architects, Engineers, Designers & Artists in South Florida into a collaborative series of creative projects and special events.


      It is our aim to foster increased civic engagement and enable creative collaboration. Along the way we hope to inspire and educate anyone who joins us in the journey.

      Our projects traverse the uncharted territory where creativity, technology and activism intersect.

    • MIAMI TOOL LIBRARY (2017)

      CIRCUMPLEX -

      Engage Your Desires (2016)

      Crafted as the Main Event for the Opening Gala of Filmgate Interactive conference in 2016, This project was a subversive event that portrayed itself as a sponsored corporate party, but was in fact much more.

       

      In reality, it was an immersive experiential dystopian madhouse with projection of appropriated public information on the Internet, with costumed performers, drones, projection mapping, VR mischief, Subliminal messaging, eavesdropping hackers, militarized police clowns and more.

       

      Think Timothy Leary (Leary’s Circumplex), Click-Bait, Privacy, Snowden, social media and the NSA.

      THE MIAMI PARKLET PROJECT (2015)

      A Parklet is a Parking Spot (for cars) that has been converted into a Park (for humans).

      THE RED HERRING PROJECT (2015)

       The Red Herring Project is a network of videochat terminals spread throughout Miami. While the frontend provides live 2-way audio and video streaming and recording that is free to the public, the backend generates a swarm of encrypted signals to distract the NSA from reading your emails.

      CrypDonation

      2017 Saw Unprecedented Growth in CryptoCurrency markets, and also a chilling series of natural disasters.

       

      We aim to address one by using the other.
