Translab was a collaborative research project mapping the possibilities emerging from the technological culture (hardware, software), trends in science (genetic engineering, artifical intelligence, biotechnologies), and in distribution of information (internet, interface, digital photography and video).

The project focused on new media environment phenomena (such as simulation, copy&paste, open source, interface, algorithm, glitch, or social software) and placed them to face the history of art, music, film, literature, sociology, philosophy, and science.

As the tool, microstory was used — text unit of a paragraph, summing up the context, form, and content of particular work, event, or theory. Regarding its relevance for the topic the level of originality, media response and spectator's shock was taken into account (like Ballet Mécanique piece for noise).

Translab evenings experimented with the institution of moderator, guest and audience; oscillating on the border of presentation, coffee talk and show.

All the involved are famous today.
