Creative Tech Village

IT'S SHOWTIME! Bandwidth Amplifier kicks off TODAY.

The energy is building at Saltwater Busselton and we cannot wait to get started. Today marks the launch of Bandwidth Amplifier, live at our FREE Plugin event.

This is where creative technology meets real opportunity. Where ideas turn into connections, and where our region's innovators, makers and businesses come together to build what is next.

If you are in Busselton today, this is one to be part of. Bring your curiosity, bring your ideas, and let's amplify what is possible when creativity and technology come together.

Even better: the City of Busselton is sponsoring 10 places, valued at $500 each, completely free. Sign up now to claim one before they are gone.

See you there. Let's make it happen.

WHAT IF THE FUTURE WAS SOMETHING WE COULD STEP INTO? 
 
For three decades, Time’s Up has been exploring what happens when art, technology, science, society and imagination collide.

Their work creates immersive worlds where people don’t just think about the future - they experience it. Play with it. Question it. And imagine what might come next.
 
At the centre of this work is Tim Boykett, founding member of Time’s Up and our keynote speaker for Bandwidth Plug-In.
 
Expect big questions, strange possibilities and a fresh look at what creative thinking can do when the rules get a little blurry.
 
This is the keynote you want to stick around for.

“I seek to engage with others by telling stories in a way that is the right way for me as an Aboriginal person and artist, and to make a contribution to making spaces safe in the arts and beyond.

I come from experiences grappling with ‘otherness,’ often in the attempt to say something about the use of language and its role in the creation and maintenance of power structures.

I also honour the rage.”
