These presentations and discussion deals with the topic of participatory culture. Participatory culture is characterised by an active relation, wherein people interpret, configure, and construct media. The cases presented here explore the question how participation can be triggered by different disciplines and end-users/publics. Do specific methods, tools, principles or aesthetics lead to more participation? Does participation make the process and the outcomes “better”? What practices “work” and how can processes and outcomes fail in stimulating participation?
