The SVITAVA group seeks interdisciplinary ways of collaboration, team implementation and non-hierarchical forms of self-education in the post-digital age. We are a group of artists, practitioners and theorists who critically explore, use and reflect on current technologies in their work. 

Accent and interest lie in the intersecting fields of sound art, electroacoustic music, physical-computing, experimental materials and handicrafts, reflection on technology, VR, AI, photography, digital image and light.

Currently we are engaged in conducting workshops on topics close to our own and concerts related to them.

The group currently consists of twelve people and one AI.
