Ever wanted to organize a movie screening in the middle of the woods or on a public place with your neighbors. Now it is easily possible with the Open Air Cinema, a module that can project any movie anywhere in Brussels (you only need a white wall or two hooks to attach the blanket. We bring hundreds of old movies that fall in the creative common but can also show lesser known jewels or top-notch documentaries.
It is possible anywhere because we are energy independent. No external electricity needed.

You can book us via mail.
Canal d’Accroche
The neighborhood around the canal in Molenbeek is always been a place of change and transition. People have it difficult to acquire the public space. With Canal d’Accroche, a project funded by the city we are developing mobile tools by using Vélo M2 to help those people reuse the public space around them. From gardening workshops, building sessions and open air screenings we will experiment with the locals how to appropriate public space. More info can be found here: http://captainlysander.wixsite.com/canalaccroche.
Building Sessions
We are always searching new possibilities with our multi modular system, but also with the general Open Source and cooperative mind set. Since June 2016 we are regulatory having building sessions for new modules and systems. Instead of doing it all ourselves we like to have multiple teams working together on it, creating and using what already exist to build new modules. We use therefor the community tool WeVolver to work on different modules. In June, July and August of 2016 we will be building a lot of new modules. So if you are living around Brussels and want to join the network, give us a sign!
