Overview
Finally the second HackteriaLab will take place this summer in Romainmôtier, Switzerland. HackteriaLab 2011 will be comprised of two sections. The first being the creative development and research phase of the „Retreat“ at L'Arc, Romainmôtier (VD) and the second a „Reflection“ comprising the public dissemination and communication events in Yverdon, Lausanne and Zurich as the culmination of the retreat. A highly interdisciplinary and multicultural group of artists and scientists will collaborative work and share their knowledge with various networks of local artists and institutions and a public audience.
HackteriaLab 2011 | The Retreat
The event starts with a 7 days workshop/lab with invited international and local artists/scientists/biohackers (approx 10-15 people). During that time we can collaborate, discuss and work on ideas about DIY biology, ArtScience, BioHacking, Microscopy, NanoBio etc…

How to get thereAs you can imagine the Retreat will happen in a remote area in the Swiss Jura mountains. So its not too easy to find travel information through international ticket sites. In case you organise your travel, just make sure you get to Switzerland from the right direction and arrive in one of the nearby major cities, such as Geneva from the south, or Basel/Zürich form the North and West. Also local train fares are quite expensive without special residency tickets, so we will provide a minibus to collectively pick you up and drive you to the monastry. Collective transportation by mini-bus from Zürich/Basel to Romainmotier
By train 1. Zurich < on 27th, mini bus can pick a group together > cheaper ticket too 2. Yverdon-les-Bains < on 28th, one hour before Geneva the same track, change to local train & bus to final stop - Romainmôtier, église , sample route see SBB :
Either you fly to Geneva on 28th, Basel or Zurich on 27th. and stay overnight in Zürich. we'll drive together on the 28th to Romainmotier.
