| The Daemon project, as an Unix Daemon, allows communication to happen. As a lesser greek deity, allows the being to access a more prosper and happy state, ''eudaimonia'' (happiness, to have a good daimon), or to end up in despair and misery if mistreated. We feel strongly the need to have productive contact and sharing with our fellow researchers, and to keep the process in an harmonic, balanced, free cultural form. Our aim is to gather fellow artists, thinkers, engineers and creative in a research and development place where to focus on free and open source hardware and software technologies. |

| Our first goal is the open-studio: creating a temporary location accessible on a periodic base, where creatives can experiment & develop feasability of their media-art, exchange freely fresh ideas and experiment with technologies. Interested people are free to join the sessions. Question and answer, problem solving and development are researched & shared with fellows. New topics and discussion items will be proposed freely by paricipants and natural links and connections between them will favor joint projects and cultural exchange. |

Two questions as "the ghost of our time" are wondering over Europe:
