The Institute creates, documents and communicates knowledge in ways that are visceral, thought-provoking and entertaining.
The Institutes ambition is to take the sum of the manifold qualities of art, culture and business and introduce them into a new framework where everyone who’s interested can convene, reflect and be inspired. We want to dissect and report on emerging trends and phenomena, which haven't yet frozen solid in popular discursive categories - because then the definition is still up for grabs.
We host informal salons to refine our tastes and to enlighten our audience by giving competent people a platform to speak, debate and share from. The goal is always to increase our collective intelligence through knowledge and dialogue - and to have fun while doing it.
The Institute is responsable for Distortion Institute, a theoretical approach to partying and entertainment.
