Dear visitor,You are invited to join Naive Yearly: the room for the quiet, odd, and poet web.Naive Yearly gathers people who expand what the web is and can be. Artists, designers, educators, developers, writers and organizers who avoid nostalgia and technological utopias but use the internet and the open protocols to invite us to see the world anew in the present tense. As such, it is a day of the art of living.My wish is to foster an atmosphere that steers us like a gentle river, away from abstraction and into the wild sea with our pockets full of sunflower seeds.I’m currently preparing this year’s edition. Expect more information around May.With care
Kristoffer

All talks from Naive Yearly are adapted into essays to make the conversations travel beyond the walls of the room. Done in partnership with Are.na.
