# initiative
|
|
*varia* is a Rotterdam based initiative focused on working with, about and through technology. At its core the initiative aims to be a social infrastructure from which to collaboratively facillitate critical understandings on the technologies that surround us. The initiative is a membership-based organisation striving to become a space for questions, opinions, modifications, help and action.
