About SPLOT

SPLOT Institute (PL) inspires cross-disciplinary creative collaboration to address pressing social, environmental and economical challenges. We deliver schemes for young creators from diverse backgrounds using our own methodology, successfully applied in international projects such as SPLOT UA Residency (organized in collaboration with the US Department of State and the US Embassy Warsaw), Direction Earth/Space Creative Campus (for the European Space Agency) and ART+DESIGN+SCIENCE schemes (supported by the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage).

What do they do in the Distributed Design context?

As part of the Distributed Design Platform, we have launched SPLOT Open – an initiative that focuses on building an inclusive, open and interdisciplinary community where we strive to democratize access to knowledge and creation. As part of the scheme, we facilitate a space for meetings, interactions and exchange of ideas that have openness in their DNA. To make sure that we are open indeed, we welcome a wide array of initiatives. Our definition of openness includes components ranging from open licensing, co-creation and circulation of knowledge sharing or open data to community governance, circularity and decentralized decision-making.
