The open raumlabor university is a fictional institution offering workshops, excursions, and open discussions as educational formats. Founded in 2015, it builds upon a long history of learning related formats by raumlaborberlin at the same time offering a new framing for the many participatory and exchange oriented formats of the work. The ORU is part of a wider move to shift from project to practice and essentially seeks to open up a common space for exploration, improvisation and collective experimentation.
