Hologram Workshop (ZTB E.V. Future Workshop #6 Wert/Value) – Sophiensæle | Independent Theater in Berlin
Hologram Workshop (ZTB E.V. Future Workshop #6 Wert/Value)
This workshop is offered for people who are new to The Hologram to learn about the history and reasoning behind The Hologram practice, as well as an opportunity to experiment with it together. The practice itself values and puts together the processes of personal introspection, social cooperation, and strategic anti-capitalist organization. The workshop takes 3 hours and is composed of ⅓ part presentation, and ⅔ part participation. Everyone who joins us will be well supported, challenged, and invited to join the larger global Hologram community of practitioners.
What is The Hologram?
One part social practice, one part technology of revolution, and one part feminist science fiction come to life, The Hologram is a lightweight, replicable, autonomous protocol for human cooperation which at its simplest level sees three people (a triangle) offer care, support and transformative questions to a fourth (the hologram). Soon members of the triangle themselves become holograms with new triangles and the health virus spreads. In time, the triangle becomes a living medical record for the hologram. We hacked everyday online tools to make this open-source, peer-to-peer, viral social technology feel warm and accessible.
Magdalena Jadwiga Härtelova is a curator and group facilitator who works to create sneaky training grounds for autonomous organizing and collective liberation. They are one of the founding members of Casino for Social Medicine, a volunteer run space on Berlin’s Sonnenallee that defines itself as “part time coffee house, part time mutual aid gamble, part time clinic for collective experiences.” They are also one of the organizers of The Hologram project, a peer-to-peer health protocol practiced from couches all over the world. Within it, they research the long-term effects of receiving free high quality peer care. With Cassie Thornton, Magdalena recently co-edited a book titled It’s Too Late. Do It Anyway! (Thick Press: 2025) dedicated to all fumbling cultural workers in the apocalypse. Magdalena’s other ongoing projects involve a bedroom gallery Mehringplatz 20, a free university of unlearning that employs artists to teach skills other than art, and strategizing for curating towards the end of Art-as-we-know-it.
