Membership

Join us!

If you would like to become a member of the Spatial Media Lab, e.V. and participate in building a community of scientists, experts, tinkerers, and artists, sign up using one of our two forms below. It costs only 10€ per month to join the Lab.

What benefits come with a Spatial Media Lab membership?

  • 20% off studio/room rental for personal projects
  • 20% off tickets to workshops and SML-hosted events
  • Access to our private Telegram, a group full of experts in spatial and immersive media
  • Access to our private Notion Workspace used for organizing projects, funding, and more
  • Plus, every one hour worked on building/supporting the Spatial Media Lab e.V. will equate to one hour personal use of the facilities. That means if you paint a wall, make graphics for a social media post, help update and support the website, or work on a project pro-bono, you will earn one hour of personal usage of one of the Spatial Media Lab’s rooms of your choice for whatever reason you want.
