Liepaja University Art Research Laboratory (MPLab) was established in 2006 as a structural research unit under the Faculty of Humanities, Liepaja University (LV). The general aim of MPLab is to establish dynamic, innovative and responsive environment for research in art locally and nationally. MPLab develops new media art education in Liepaja in strong collaboration with art practitioners, NGOs and public institutions. The work of MPLab is based on the research in visual and sound arts practice and theory, eco-aware art, immersive media and art education realising national, international and interdisciplinary research projects.

The Sound and Media Computing LabThe SMC group is a research group of the Centre for Telecommunications and Multimedia at INESC TEC and the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto, specialized in Sound and Music Computing. They combine basic research in signal processing, pattern recognition, music and human-computer interaction, and aim at contributing to make computers better understand, model and generate sounds and music.

Returning to MTF Labs for the second time, the Mexico satellite ‘Tercer Cuerpo Sonoro’ explores other relationships with the environment, nature, humans and non-humans from an intersubjective body from a search for resonance. This research group explores possibilities with and from the telematic means to inhabit other sensory rooms where the body becomes a place, and the place in turn becomes a body. They experiment with physical, emotional and sound places, in which the visual and aural drifts can be perceived with digital and physical bodies in a game of reinterpretation and reappropriation.

The Labatelier Cymatics is a project that works on the intersection of art/sci/tech. Working with institutions offering Interactive sessions for participants, featuring carthographic games on image , sound, carthography, emotions, body, space and gestures; turning visible the invisible; cymatic experience; vibrational paintings with sound and music; and soundscape and acoustic territories. Labatelier Cymatics also produce exhibitions and installations, art news, lectures and artistic residence projects for institutions.

The n-D::StudioLab at York University (Toronto, Canada) is an adaptable space for research-creation based theoretical discourse, methodological development, and the production of works in the areas of ArtScience, Computational Art, and Interactive Architecture. In addition, there is an emphasis on methodological development in the integration of software development, digital fabrication, electronics hardware development, and sound and vision research with the goal of creating eversive works that blur the divide between the virtual and the real.
